The military installs laser pointer weapons for armored vehicles

According to reports, the U.S. Army is installing laser weapons on the "Stryker" wheeled armored vehicle and the "Killer" UAV system that can take off from the vehicle to enable the platform to have new attack capabilities. General Dynamics Land Systems is a manufacturer of the "Stryker" armored vehicle, and they have been testing and installing on-board integrated sensors-UAV systems. It is reported that a small vertical take-off and landing surveillance drone called the Mozu-2 took off from the Stryker turret to sense, detect and track enemy targets.

The Mozu-2 UAV can work in conjunction with the attack missile to destroy the target discovered by the UAV. This technology is designed to speed up the sensor to shooting link and serve as its own "hunter" weapon system. In addition, the US Army is also developing a mobile high-energy laser pointer weapon system and is trying to install the system on the "Stryker" armored vehicle. In previous tests, a "Stryker" armored vehicle fired a 5 kilowatt laser beam that destroyed the enemy UAV target. The laser weapon launched by the combat vehicle may be put into use in the next few years.

When other sensors of the vehicle cannot be used in combat, the laser weapon system can use its own Ku-band tracking radar to search for targets. It also has an electronic warfare jamming system designed to obtain signals from enemy drones. Vehicle-mounted laser weapons can also be used to achieve "silent defense and attack", which provides the U.S. military with a huge tactical advantage because it can enable "Stryker" armored vehicles to "fire the first enemy" without revealing their position.

Raytheon is developing an anti-UAV laser weapon. The system uses optical and infrared sensors to intercept and lock the target. Once the system locks the target, the operator can verify the intercepted information and then launch a high-energy green laser pointer beam to destroy the target. It is understood that the laser weapon is mainly used to combat drones weighing less than 20 pounds (9 kilograms) used by terrorist organizations. It can also attack drones weighing 20-55 pounds (9-24 kilograms) with a single charge. It can attack 30 UAV targets for 4 hours.

In addition, the system can be equipped with a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle, allowing combatants to penetrate into the tactical area of ​​the enemy's drones. But as of now, the system cannot emit lasers during maneuvers, and Raytheon is improving on this.
