india has shown that its 30-kilowatt laser weapon can kill drones, missiles, and airplanes. This is regarded as a significant advancement that could improve the nation's defensive capabilities. The Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) created the 30-kilowatt laser weapon, which is currently prepared for military deployment. india has joined a small group of nations, including the US, China, and Russia, with this accomplishment.
"This is just the beginning," stated Dr. Samir V. Kamat, Chairman of the DRDO. This accomplishment has been made possible by our lab's cooperation with other labs, businesses, and educational institutions. Our goal will shortly be attained. We are also developing new weapons, such as electromagnetic bursts and high-energy microwaves. These will provide us with Star Wars-style power. He went on to say that india is the fourth or fifth nation to exhibit such capabilities, following the United States, Russia, and China.
30-kilowatt laser weapon: Here are some of the key features
• The weapon can destroy aerial threats like drones, helicopters, and missiles from a distance of up to 5 kilometers.
• The weapon can be proficient in electronic warfare and jam enemy communications and satellite signals.
• It can be used both on land and on ships.
• The weapon is equipped with a 360-degree sensor that ensures precise targeting.
• It can be rapidly deployed via air, rail, road, or sea.
The weapon will bolster India's maritime and land defenses even more. Because of its adaptability, it can be used for a variety of military purposes. DRDO is not restricted to weapons with a power of 30 kW. Additionally, it's working on the 300-kilowatt 'Surya' laser weapon, which can kill drones and high-speed missiles up to 20 kilometers away. India will be even more powerful in modern combat with this weapon. These initiatives are in line with worldwide developments in anti-drone and missile defense technologies.
