Optimized High Energy Laser Source Adv Tech

Abstract

This Project matures and demonstrates Optimized High Energy Laser Source advanced technology establishing a more affordable laser source for application in High Energy Laser weapon systems. This Project will deliver a lower cost laser weapon source to next generation HEL systems. Research in this Project complements other Army Directed Energy efforts conducted under (PE) 0602150A (Air and Missile Defense Technology)/Projects DC1 (Next Generation Directed Energy Concept Development and Analysis) and CV7 (High Energy Laser Direct Diode Applied Technology). The cited research is consistent with the Army's modernization programs, the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas, the Army Modernization Strategy, and supports the Army's future capability opportunities for leap-ahead technology for Directed Energy. Research is performed by the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command - Technical Center (USASMDC-TC) in coordination with RCCTO and PEO Missiles and Space/PM Shield.
