Iran's Drone War Humiliates US Defence: Pentagon Bets on $5 Laser Shots | Firstpost America
The US Army is taking a major step toward practical laser warfare, signing its first production contract for a high-energy laser system designed to destroy drones. The $464-million programme promises an extraordinarily low cost per shot, potentially transforming the economics of air defence. Developed by AeroVironment, the system uses a 30-kilowatt laser to target small and medium-sized aerial threats. The move follows lessons from the Iran war, where expensive missiles were used against swarms of low-cost drones. Cary Johnston brings you the details on Firstpost.00:00 - 01:05: Introduction to the Laser Weapon Contract
