Close Combat High Energy Laser Technology

Abstract

This effort develops laser and beam control technologies with extremely low size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements enabling high energy lasers in small, agile close combat platforms. Extremely low SWaP laser systems will expand the laser weapons mission set. Reduction in SWaP also provides for higher power systems on the large tactical vehicles that enable countering the current threat set at longer ranges as well as laser-hardened threats.
