Meteorological weapons are not a new concept, nor are they science fiction. Even as far back as World War II, humans have had initial applications of meteorological weapons.
By removing fog at airports to ensure aircraft takeoff and landing, and creating dense fog to cover troops crossing rivers, these were all early applications of meteorological weapons.
The technology for truly artificial weather intervention emerged in the 1940s when the Federation's scientists successfully conducted freezing nuclei formation experiments, laying the foundation for the development of artificial weather modification.
Since then, the Federation began experiments applying artificial weather intervention technology in the military field.
Starting in 1966, the Federation secretly carried out artificial rainfall for seven years on the Vietnam battlefield to disrupt traffic, making it difficult for the Vietnam People's Army to mobilize and transport supplies.
