"a beam of directed ultrasound that delivers audio ten times more isolated "

ah, so this is what they used in embassy attacks

The details of the weapon still doesn't seem to be known, but probably just a matter of "when" those leak, seems to be the same as what was used in Venezuela (which Trump might confuse when he talks about it).

Latest I've seen about it: "Secret 'discombobulator' weapon was crucial to Venezuelan raid on Maduro" - https://nypost.com/2026/01/24/us-news/trump-reveals-to-the-p... (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46754101 | 7 days ago | 6 comments)

probably not the same company. It's a well–documented phenomenon.
