To have that kind of destructive ability sans explosives is truly revolutionary, its basically a Rod from God that doesnt have to be lugged into space
They seem to be hitting a few snags with consistently and reliably powering them up with, the compromise might be using conventional powder propellants that allow the round to still move twice as fast as a conventional round while they decipher the electrical power problem

Thanks for the link. I stumbled onto this railgun doing some research on Dora and Leopold rail guns for a scale model build I'm contemplating. The Blizter gun has a muzzle velocity of Mach 7! It's been pretty interesting reading about it. They get the kinks worked out of it, it will be a game changer.
