At the appropriate distance, a launcher fires oversized buckshot that shreds the incoming shell.

Very interesting, both about the weapon and your demonstration of open source intelligence. Clearly, its not a laser. However, I maitain that it is also not a "force field." I think "like a miniature patriot missle system" would convey the appropriate technical concept to the viewing public without being misleading.

Whats really interesting about these systems is that if you can rely on them you don't need as much armor, which makes you more flexible and lighter.
