PSP High Energy Laser (HEL)

Abstract

The HEL demonstration will integrate a next generation Directed Energy Weapon System onto an AC-130. The effort demonstration will integrate mature laser sub-systems, (Beam Director, Laser, Thermal, and Power) to develop a prototype system. The prototype will be utilized for an operational evaluation and inform future requirements. The HEL components will be designed for modular upgrades and integrated with the PSP system.
