Directed Energy: The Time for Laser Weapon Systems has Come

At sea, in the air, and on the ground, Lockheed Martin is developing laser weapon systems to protect warfighters on the battlefield. Hear from our experts about how these systems combine with platform integration to defeat a growing range of threats to military forces and infrastructure.

Lasers?
Ace Combat is getting closer to reality.

It's all fun and games until the US military integrates this technology into a large tower codenamed after a mythical sword.

Jesus. That’s some ripe corporate jargon. Just say “the military wanted sharks with freaking laser beams attached to their heads”

[marchesau]

With this technology, no one is safe. Especially small islands. 😮

[thebenalvarez]

Next thing...Frickin “lasers” attached to sharks.

*sees laser weapon video* “meh probably some bs youtuber” *looks again* “holy shit Lockheed Martin posted this”

[Hotwwhheels]

Is any chance of this being attached to 2 drones named hugin and munin?

[henners]

Oh god it’s even called Helios. Lockheed Martin is just becoming more and more of an ace combat reference each day.

I'm still waiting for the Arsenal Bird.

[thescientist]

My friends, this really do be an ADFX-02 Morgan moment.

[Aqua_Sol]

Their weapon is codenamed "Helios"! It's a long-range laser carried by fighters, naval ships, and light armor units.

Missiles with mirror finish: "I'm about to end this man's entire career"

So we are just few years away from getting The Plasma Rifle in 40MW range.

*wipes eyes*

North Osea Grunder Industries

*puts on glasses*

South Belka Munitions Factory

[MrGoodeats]

“What we’re hearing from our customers” as if they were talking about me was my favorite part :)

[TrapperPingu]

So Belkan technology will soon become a reality.

Nobody:
Lockheed: a fusion nuclear reactor in an F35

I just love how the entire Ace Combat community just planted themselves in the comment section the way Osea plants space elevators on other continents.

[Jake_Eyes]

I demand to know why this comment section isn't saturated with General Malcolm "Ace" Granger quotes!
