Japan is developing real life railguns

Cool read and really cool video. I know the railguns in the game are theoretically possible, just never seen them real.

The article was saying how they are working towards sizing them down to fit on warships. Since currently the only functional ones are massive. This is the part that's new afaik
I didn't make it clear in my OP, but that's what I was talking about. They making railguns that are very similar to in the game.
