Abstract

C207 - Directed Energy Development and Test - Continue to develop and test a surface ship based Directed Energy (DE) Weapon System that provides a critical Counter-Elecro Optics (EO)/Infra Red (IR) sensor capability to prevent identification of U.S. Forces by enemy Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) through jamming and/or destruction of the sensor. This system also provides "zero time of flight" asymmetric hard-kill defensive capability against Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)/rockets/artillery/mortars, and small boat/swarm disruption, with an "unlimited magazine". It also provides defeat/soft-kill of tactical EO/IR sensors associated with Fire Control and Periscope optics.
