rocket powered military thing?

anyone remember the video posted a couple of years back, it was a US military thing, that hovered and moved about by firing rockets, but eventually ended up on the ground? was flying about in a cage i think?

anyone remember what it was called or where the video was?

that looks about as useful as a decade hand on a wristwatch.

Seriously, very cool, but what the hell is the point? It's hardly stealthy! *RATATATATATATATATATATATATAA*

Its not meant to be stealthy. Its meant to be a deployable, stationery weapons platform that can engage multiple targets while leaving the lead vehicle free to escape.

From what I read its not a weapon, but meant more as an anti-missle drone? Fires itself up in the path of missiles? Or did I miss-read that?
The talk about it being a weapon and firing seem to be comments under the video, which are probably written by 14 year old septics.

Still bloody impressive to get that sort of control from a rocket propelled item.
