Bring Laser Weapon From Star War

In December 10th, the United States Naval Research Office announced that the Navy's burning laser weapon system (LAWS) has been deployed at the ship and tested successfully. The deployment of this burning laser made a great significance.In most of science fiction movies, laser weapons are the most impressive weapon for many people. And the "laser weapon system," marks the United States Navy has made a great progres at the development of high energy laser weapons.

Differences between burning laser and high powered laser

The American army's laser weapons can only make the boat become hot, so that the engine can not work. In order to deal with the UAV, it just need to irraditate the UAV for a few seconds by the burning laser weapon.

Many countries believe that it is important to develop high powered laser weapons and deploy them at the battle.It was the first time that install laser weapons on the actual warships. The system itself does not have a revolutionary, and other countries including Russia and China have similar weapons like this. China Physical Engineering Research Institute has demonstrated a low altitude guards laser defense system which was similar to the LaWS laser weapon.This laser defense system deployed at tanks can blind the enemy.

Soviet Union VS USA

Compared with missile or projectile,high powered burning laser weapons can destroy small unmanned aerial vehicles,which is considered to be a promising prospect because of the low cost of energy. But the cost of the 300mw Green Laser device is still too high.The effectiveness of the laser weapon will decrease with the deterioration of the weather conditions. The enemy can make difficult for the use of laser weapons, for example, through the production of aerosol smoke to protect the target, or design a missile or aircraft in a heat resistant materials.

In 1980 the Soviet Union tested the shipborne laser device which was installed on "Dixon". However, many laser weapons were interrupted by the collapse of the Soviet Union, but Russia restart these projects at the beginning of this century,
