The laser gun with a capacity of 10,000 watts


news_15012_1_MDFor years, scientists are working on laser weapons, which never runs out of charge, and that will be able to shoot down a target in the air, if you configure it a certain way. However, over time all that they do not exceed the power of an ordinary incandescent bulb. It was only in 2004, scientists from the Jefferson Laboratory in the American National Accelerator Centre have created a so-called ... But now the research units of the Navy United States began to develop a laser FEL, 10 times more powerful, that is, a 100- kilowatt.





The defense industry has expressed interest in this type of laser, since the rest of their species to some extent absorbed by the atmosphere. This is especially evident in a humid environment, for example, over the sea. Immunity FEL lasers due to their ability to work at certain wavelengths, which are practically not absorbed by the medium.
