what is the weapon?


Economically, weapons are any tools that are made or used to inflict damage or harm on humans or other animals. Historically, weapons have been used for thousands of years by mankind for both killing and destruction. Weapons ranging from simple clubs to advanced nuclear weapons are all in use today. A weapon is defined as something being able to kill or injure another person or animal.
All humans have a deep-seated need to survive. This need is understood through our most fundamental sense: the ability to procreate. Humans must eat, drink, and sleep in order to survive, and those activities require shelter. As man progressed from hunting and gathering, speaking manifested as language around 12,000 BC. The first documented use of weapons occurred when humans discovered how to use tools such as spears, hooks, and adzes for hunting or defending against predators.

According to Hindu civilization, what is weaponry?


A weapon is said to be engraved things into two pieces and another type of weapon destroyed the things on a massive range.
In the period of Hindus, weapons are classified into two kinds: 1. Astra
2. Shastra

Now we talk about what is Astra & Shastra?


Astra

Astra is a weapon of supernatural power, the tutelary weapon of Brahma. This gives it amazing powers and protects it from harm. It also gave Astra a supernatural force that could not be resisted as it was capable of killing any enemy at will. This was considered to be the most powerful weapon that existed in the entire universe because its only purpose was to destroy everything or become part of nothingness!

One of the weapons that you will find in a library or museum is a shastra. A shastra was a form of weapon used to cut things and not curved by god, but what does it mean? It means a weapon that has been developed by people from the past.

Modern weapons



Machine gun


Modern weapons are the most powerful, accurate, and efficient machine guns but with a wider choice of firepower. These weapons have the ability to act as both machine guns and anti-material weapons. Modern weapons have fallen in favor because of their speed, flexibility, and efficiency. These modern weapons can be seen on every battlefield from the Middle East to Africa.
Modern weapons are designed to use an electrical current in combination with a projectile, to provide more power per shot than their predecessor. They are also designed to be lightweight and easy to carry around, making it easier for soldiers to carry them around without fatigue or other issues like that With modern weapons, the chance of survival is much higher. They are more in compliance with recent standards and rules of the world. In today’s world, weapons are essential to protect a nation’s sovereignty and way of life.

Nuclear weapons


ICBM Atomic bomb

Nuclear weapons are large explosive devices that release energy from fission, a process in which the nuclei of atoms are split. Nuclear weapons have short to medium ranges and often involve high temperatures and pressures (fusion bombs). They have been used in warfare throughout the majority of modern history.
The first nuclear weapon was detonated in 1945 by the United States against the Japanese city of Hiroshima, killing more than 70,000 people. This bombing, known as a "Little Boy" after the size of the bomb, was quickly followed by another bomb dropped on Nagasaki three days later that killed more than 40,000 people.


In the future, electromagnetic rail guns are said to be the future of warfare as, like other weapons on this list, they use laser energies rather than traditional explosives materials and controlled explosions. The result is a long-range weapon with much greater accuracy. While not yet fully developed, electromagnetic rail guns are made possible by advances in computing power and high-speed communications technology allowing for quicker reaction times between the rail gun and its target.
Although electro-guns may not be a new concept in weaponry, they do have a long history that has resulted in a great deal of uncertainty in the field. We have yet to see with any confidence whether these weapons can be mounted on helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, or ships with the range needed for their application in warfare.
