| The dish is merely a focusing tool on this weapon. Depending on the operating frequency of the device, small bullet holes may or may not have any effect on it's efficiency. Like the grill on a microwave oven, radiation leakage doesn't occur if the holes aren't big enough. To have any practical effect on this weapon, I think you'd have to significantly mis-shape the dish.
The electronics and power generator are another story. A single bullet may be enough there to shut this thing down.
