" #Russia has successfully tested a #laser #gun

In Russia, they conducted successful field tests of a laser gun to #destroy various types of #drones.

" Successful tests of a combat laser designed to destroy unmanned aerial vehicles were carried out at one of the Russian military training grounds. The laser gun demonstrated high efficiency in hitting UAVs in the near zone," a media source said.

In tests, the combat laser of the infrared spectrum ensured the physical destruction of drones, in particular, burned through the aerodynamic surfaces of the vehicles or burned their body along with on-board equipment. Drones of both aircraft and quadrocopter types were destroyed by the laser, the source noted.

Today, the leading countries of the world are actively working on tactical laser suppression and destruction systems, which should, in particular, strike drones and ammunition in the air in the near zone."

Chinese military scientists claim to have achieved a ‘huge breakthrough’ on #laser #weapon #technology

•High-energy laser weapons can now operate ‘infinitely’ thanks to a new cooling system that completely eliminates the build-up of waste heat

•The technology could significantly change the face of battle by extending engagement times, and increasing range and damage, researchers say
