According to a report by the Russian “Izvestia” on the 7th, the Russian Ministry of Defense will soon receive a new type of mobile laser pointer system, which can blind tanks, aircraft, missiles and other equipment at long distances. According to reports, the system was developed by the Russian “Astrophysics” scientific research and production consortium. The whole system is small and can be installed on tanks and armored vehicles.
The system can blind enemy tanks and armored vehicles by illuminating the target’s light components and sighting devices, as well as aircraft, helicopters and incoming guided missiles tens of kilometers away. Russian experts believe that this mobile laser system has very good prospects and represents the development direction of Russian high-tech weapon systems.
Laser weapons are directed energy weapons that use directed green laser pointer beams to directly damage targets or make them invalid. They have the advantages of fast attack speed, flexible steering, precise strike, and freedom from interference. In addition to laser weapons, Russia has also developed a microwave weapon called the “microwave gun” in recent years. The weapon can paralyze the opponent’s aircraft, missiles and other equipment through high-energy electromagnetic waves. At present, there are no such weapons as “microwave cannons” in other countries in the world.
