I don't know if even DARPA were fool enough to throw money at it, but I wonder whatever happened to the DREAD (http://www.defensereview.com/world-exclusive-video-dread-weapon-system-devastating-jam-proof-and-silent/). I was surprised at how many people got suckered in by the arguments about how a recoilless gun doesn't break the laws of conservation of momentum :-(
