Laser weapons are advanced systems that use focused beams of light to damage or destroy targets. They operate by emitting concentrated energy, which can heat, burn, or disrupt the electronics of an object. These weapons are often considered for military applications due to their precision and speed, as they can hit targets almost instantly. One of the key advantages of laser weapons is their low operational cost compared to traditional munitions. They require less maintenance and can be powered by electricity, making them more sustainable. Research and development in this field involve various technologies, including high-energy lasers and fiber lasers, which enhance their effectiveness and range.
