The link works for me, I'm using Firefox.

One possible downside: the target has to be laser illuminated.

Good for super long range snipers I guess, but, considering that snipers have already made hits at over 2000 yards without guided ammunition is it really needed and/or worth the expense?

It might have a consumer market if the laser designator is low power enough. Even then, it sure does take a funky path to the target so you'd better have a lot of clear area for the shot.

What an absolutely stupid statement.

First, the developers clearly state that it is a laser guided projectile.

Second, even barring the first statement, a bag of hammers has the intelligence to see that, with the, "5th element" system, a miss with the first round simply guarantees that all other rounds also miss.
