Raytheon just released this High-Energy Mission Scenarios marketing video in which they demonstrate their vision for networked laser defenses.Drawing on decades of manufacturing expertise, Raytheon continues to define the future for high-energy laser systems, target designators and next generation laser range finders. Our combat proven sensors and ready-now technology turn “just an idea” into a dominant battlefield advantage.
We provide innovative laser weapon systems with 360 degree coverage for sea, land and air applications. Our laser technology identifies, tracks, and defends against enemy missiles, mortars, unmanned vehicles, swarming boat attacks and other “close-in” defense situations. They provide precise, clean, low-cost engagements with near-infinite magazines.
Our systems generate high power output in compact and rugged packages. The open architecture features modular, scalable designs that can be integrated on a variety of tactical platforms making them available for immediate use in combat.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF OUR APPROACH:
- High survivability, rugged design with straightforward scalability to higher output power
- Compact and lightweight
- Efficient heat removal and thermal management
- Modular, low maintenance design
- Automated queuing from the full spectrum of EO/IR sensors
- Proven manufacturing experience
Truly technologically advanced, our HEL components use a single aperture optical path and modular alignment to make the invisible visible and to ensure precision targeting.
