Well when I say that it could take Eisenhower out, I simply mean it could take its flight deck out of commission for a short time. By no means do I mean take it out as in sink it.
It just seems to me that a plane like this could easily conceal something more sinister, which could be enough to give Iran a small window of opportunity if something were to happen to Eisenhower.

True however.
That system is indiscriminate I believe. If I'm not mistaken once that's switched on ANYTHING airborne is toast. Friend or foe alike.

Pretty impressive, but how effective would these systems be against multiple targets in a very short frame of time- it does look like it can get extremely hot after an average burst and would need to cool down before it could be fired again to avoid severe damage, or this thing is like an drum-fed AK-47 that can fire bullets even if it's on fire? Not a question, but something I'm wondering about.

Actually we may already be considered "at war" with Iran.
