The laser weapon neutralised targets such as enemy drones at distances in excess of 1km with 15kW of power. The system can track multiple targets and engage at the speed of light, costing just £10 per shot. The weapon was tested on the Wolfhound armoured vehicle, however it can be mounted on various platforms to meet different operational needs.
