Unmanned aerial vehicles
Unmanned aerial vehicles are being used extensively in the world and are one of the most feared opponents of air defense systems. However, their heyday can be ended by a laser gun.
Unmanned aerial vehicles are revolutionary technologies in which the United States must invest more money in the future. But a technology against unmanned aerial vehicles is coming out in America itself.
Boeing says it has built a successful Avenger-type laser gun on the Humvee, which is capable of shooting down unmanned aerial lasers. The test version of this device monitors three unmanned aerial vehicles and shoots down one.
Marc Selinger, a Boeing spokesman, did not reveal the range of the Laser Avenger, but said the test was taking place in the desert in New Mexico, where the view was blocked by many rocky mountains. Laser guns follow an object and will not fire until the target is close enough.

Late last year, a laser gun mounted on a Boeing 747 crashed an unmanned aerial vehicle from the ground. This gun uses infrared laser light up to millions of KW.
Unmanned aerial vehicles are scary because they are capable of being automated and smaller in size than conventional fighters and planes. These factors make them almost unrivaled when flying in the air. The shape and size of the unmanned aerial vehicles range from manual launchers to take-off runways.
Ground-to-air missiles are designed to attack medium-sized aircraft. Meanwhile, some unmanned aerial vehicles are made of plastic instead of metal. Therefore, the missile-land-rocket operator encountered many difficulties in destroying the target.
It is cheaper to shoot lasers than to shoot multiple missiles. In addition, the firing process can take place continuously as long as the laser is powered up sufficiently.
