Close Combat High Energy Laser Advanced Technology

Abstract

This effort develops laser and beam control technologies with extremely low size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements enabling high energy lasers in smaller, close combat platforms. Extremely low SWaP laser systems will expand the laser weapons mission set. Reduction in SWaP also benefits higher power systems on the large tactical vehicles to counter the current threat set as well as laser-hardened threats more quickly or at longer ranges.
