JD-3 laser dazzler on Type 99A tank. The dazzler can be seen at the top-right, located behind the gunner thermal sight. Weapons designed to cause permanent blindness are banned by the 1995 United Nations Protocol on Blinding Laser Weapons. Dazzlers intended to cause temporary blindness or disorientation fall outside this protocol. [citation needed]
The personnel halting and stimulation response rifle (PHASR) is a prototype non-lethal laser dazzler developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory's Directed Energy Directorate, U.S. Department of Defense. [1] Its purpose is to temporarily disorient and blind a target.
Dazer Lasers use a "GreenStar Laser" (US Patent and Trademark Office provisional patent application no. 61/348,312), which is a diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS), 532 nm (green), Class IIIb laser that produces maximum power of over 750 mW without having to increase the same laser's size. [4]
High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS) A 60 kW laser weapon system to be tested on an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and intended for use against small boats and drones, future versions may also be powerful enough to target missiles or aircraft. Unlike the preceding LaWS which attempted to synchronise six ...
The AN/SEQ-3 Laser Weapon System or XN-1 LaWS [1] is a laser weapon developed by the United States Navy. The weapon was installed on USS Ponce for field testing in 2014. In December 2014, the United States Navy reported that the LaWS system worked perfectly against low-end asymmetric threats, and that the commander of Ponce was authorized to ...
The High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS) is a Lockheed Martin-developed 300 Kilowatt high-energy laser weapon designed to intercept combat drones, fast-attack craft, and missiles. [1] After winning the contract in 2018, the first announced installation was on the USS Preble (DDG-88) in 2019. [2]
Shtora-1 [4] is an electro-optical jammer that disrupts semiautomatic command to line of sight ATGMs, laser rangefinders and target designators. Shtora-1 is a soft kill countermeasure system . The system was shown fitted to a Russian main battle tank during the International Defense Exposition, held in Abu Dhabi in 1995.
In February 2018, Lockheed Martin received a contract to deliver its High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS) system for installation onto an Arleigh Burke destroyer. HELIOS is a "60+ kW"-class laser, scalable to 120 kW, that can "dazzle" or destroy small boats and UAVs up to 8.0 km (5 mi) away.
