Laser weapon goes through successful test

ALBUQUERQUE, Sept. 3 (UPI) -- A potential new laser weapon fired from the air to a ground target went through a successful test over White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, Boeing said.

A Boeing spokesman told United Press International the first flight of the Advanced Tactical Laser aircraft was designed primarily as a learning test bed and to demonstrate its feasibility.

The test brings closer to reality fictional movie depictions of laser weapons incinerating or vaporizing targets, but no specifications of the target vehicle or the final outcome of the test were immediately available.

Boeing organized the test jointly with the U.S. Air Force on Aug. 30, the company said.

During the test flight of the ATL aircraft, a C-130H, the ground target was attacked from the air over the missile range. It was the first time that an ATL aircraft demonstrated the high-power laser engagement of a tactically representative target, Boeing said.

The C-130H aircraft took off from Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico and fired the chemical laser through its beam control system while in flight.

The beam control system on board homed in on the unoccupied stationary vehicle and guided the laser beam onto it as directed by ATL's battle management system. "The laser beam's energy defeated the vehicle," Boeing said. It offered no description of what happened to the vehicle.

The company called the test a "milestone," adding deployment of a similar weapon could transform future battles and save lives.

Greg Hyslop, vice president and general manager of Boeing Missile Defense Systems, said ATL would give fighters a "speed-of-light, ultra-precision engagement capability" that could dramatically reduce collateral damage.

The ATL flight follows a June 13 test in which a laser fired from the air for the first time hit a target board on the ground. Additional tests will now follow to further demonstrate the system's military utility, but Boeing says the demonstrations have shown that "ATL works, and works very well."

Research into laser applications in the defense industry has engaged major players and involved other key recent tests.

Northrop Grumman also announced it successfully completed testing of its global positioning system-guided weapons technology at the White Sands Missile Range.

The company's Viper Strike system is equipped with GPS laser guidance accuracy capabilities and is designed to be integrated into Northrop Grumman's Hunter unmanned aircraft system.

In August, Boeing and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency announced they moved closer to developing an airborne high-energy laser weapon that will shoot down an upcoming offensive missile. In the first test over the California High Desert, a high-energy laser was fired from a modified 747-400F into a calorimeter, also on board, to measure the power of the beam.

Once there and while still in flight the ABL Jumbo unleashed its laser striking the calorimeter, allowing experts to determine how much more power will be required to make the weapon effective in combat.

Unlike stealth technology, which began as a passive countermeasure against increasingly advanced detection technology, airborne laser offers both pre-emptive and offensive paths of development, analysts said.

Gwiezdne wojny jeszcze daleko , niemożna jednak zaprzeczać ich nadejściu. (O laserach mówię oczywiście ;P )
Mówią że soczewki sprawiają problemy , a gdzieś czytałem o soczewkach z materiałów ciekłych.
Przewodniki , tranzystory jak i akumulatory to tylko kwesta czasu.

No i oczywiście tysiąc innych rzeczy o których nie mam pojęcia Wink

Szkoda jeszcze że w artykule zapodanym przez bimiego nie podają małego szczegółu w kwestii mozliwości tej broni w zakresie wywoływania spontanicznego zapłonu ciała ludzkiego:

American death-tech goliath Boeing has announced a long-delayed in-flight firing for the smaller of its two aeroplane raygun-cannon prototypes, the Advanced Tactical Laser (ATL). The ATL blaster, mounted in a Hercules transport aircraft, apparently "defeated" an unoccupied stationary vehicle.

'ET'- ha! And they keep denying they have alien assistance!

"This milestone demonstrates that directed energy weapon systems will transform the battlespace and save lives," said Boeing exec Greg Hyslop. "The ATL team has earned a distinguished place in the history of weapon system development."

"The bottom line is that ATL works, and works very well," added corporate raygun honcho Gary Fitzmire.

The ATL is much smaller than Boeing's headlining laser weapon, the jumbo-jet-mounted Airborne Laser (ABL), intended to blast enemy ICBMs as they soar upward from pad or silo. Rather the ATL is intended to pick off individual ground targets, somewhat in the fashion of existing Hercules-based side-firing AC-130 gunships. Indeed Boeing has referred to the ATL in the past as its "Laser Gunship".

ATL does resemble the ABL in some important respects, however. Like the bigger weapon, it is a chemically-fuelled laser rather than a solid-state electrically powered one, meaning that it can fire only a limited number of blasts before its sealed, six-ton laser module must be maintained and refuelled with hazardous toxic chemicals.

Just how many shots the ATL can fire before being rearmed is unclear, but hints dropped by Pentagon sources suggest it could be as few as six. This compares poorly with the firepower available aboard a normal AC-130, leading some analysts to wonder what the point of the ATL really is.

Boeing say that it will offer "ultra-precision" and "dramatically reduce collateral damage", though so far nothing of this sort has really been shown. A 40mm cannon aboard a normal AC-130 could "defeat" a stationary ground vehicle without damaging its surroundings: a .50-cal sniper rifle fired from a helicopter could do the same to a moving one.

It hasn't escaped notice, however, that neither of those things could strike silently - perhaps from so far off that the carrying aircraft wouldn't be noticed either - and without leaving any solid evidence of US military presence. Nor have observers failed to note that the US military agency in charge of ATL is the secretive Special Operations Command (SOCOM).

Boeing have evidently had some problems with the ATL - airborne test firings were expected last year, but this success didn't happen until last Sunday. However it would seem that the system may soon be as ready for frontline use as it will ever be, at least until electric lasers without fuel limitations are weaponised.

In years to come, the secret supertroopers of SOCOM may be able to cause a cell tower to stop working, a vehicle's fuel tank to suddenly explode, or a single person to inexplicably be incinerated - all completely silently and tracelessly, without anyone knowing they were ever there and not so much as a spent bullet left behind.

I co z tego?
Mamy teraz mnogość broni.
Czym się różni śmierć od lasera w porównaniu z setkami innych rodzajów śmierci?
Kule , szrapnele , termit , napal , trucizny ect i ect...

Śmierć od lasera jest bardziej ekologiczna:) Znak czasów hehe.

Z tego co piszą może zniszczyć pojazd. Nie wiem jaki załóżmy, że samochód osobowy.

A jeśli tym pojazdem pojazd opancerzony no to musi być coś.

Na takich szaraczków jak my wystarczą im działka mikrofalowe, przetestowane i idealne do rozpędzania demonstracji

Może te lasery to będzie takie coś jak z Wojny światów Confused

Jak sterzelą to tylko ubrania będą fruwały Laughing

Ludzie powinni cieszyć się z postępu, co kurwa chcielibyście zostać pożarci przez tygrysa szablozębnego ? Albo ukrzyżowani lub spaleni na stosie, to musi być ból!
Dostać wiązką laserową przy tym to niebo a piekło.

Zobaczymy tylko, który kraj jako pierwszy wykorzysta laser do zniszczenia wroga ?

Prawda...
Gdybyśmy mieli się martwić o wszystko co się dzieje , do czego to zmierza i co uważamy za prawdę lub fałsz... heh ja bym się chyba jakoś fantazyjnie załatwił.
Jednak wystarczy trochę przyjemności w życiu i da radę Smile

Jak zaczną strzelać do nas z laserów będzie trzeba zacząć nosić ze sobą zwierciadła czy coś ;P
