The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) spends roughly $1 billion every year on directed-energy weapons, including high-energy lasers and their directed-energy cousin high-power microwaves. https://www.laserfocusworld.com/lasers-sources/article/14295501/northrop-grumman-space-systems-talks-high-energy-lasers
REDONDO BEACH, Calif. – Aug. 24, 2023 – Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) has delivered a miniaturized high-energy laser source to the U.S. government. The laser is ruggedized for field use and miniaturizing it allows for rapid placement in tactical situations.
The 10kW class high-energy laser, known as Phantom, is about 12 cubic feet (nearly the size of a mini fridge). Weighing less than 200 pounds, it enables lift, carry and installation by as few as two personnel. The Phantom customer will integrate it with other subsystems for testing and delivery to military customers. https://news.northropgrumman.com/news/releases/northrop-grumman-delivers-mini-laser-to-u-s-government?_gl=118sks1y_gaMjE2ODczMTk1LjE3MDk3NDEyNjg._ga_7YV3CDX0R2*MTcwOTc0MTI2OC4xLjAuMTcwOTc0MTI2OC42MC4wLjA.
