Perhaps he was refering to the MILES training device? It's an integrated laser system used for combat training. The system is pretty full proof. A soldier can't kill a tank with an M16 hit, but a tank sure as heck can kill a soldier with any of it's weapons. I know there were some initial problems when it was first introducted in the late '70's. There were times when a soldier could kill a tank with his rifle. Oh the other hand he may have just been BS'ing you.
