Navy Develops Laser Weapon Prototypes for Destroyers, Cruisers - maybe Carriers

The laser weapon will be developed through a three-phased approach and fire from Destroyers, Cruisers and maybe even carriers. These weapons could quickly incinerate enemy drones, small boats and even missiles

The US Navy is accelerating efforts to incinerate drones, cruise missiles, aircraft, ships and other enemy targets with laser weapons fired from destroyers, cruisers and maybe even aircraft carriers. 

While ship fired laser weapons have been in development for a while now, the effort is gaining momentum and focus as it appears to be nearer term than was previously thought possible. Advances in integrated mobile electrical power sources and higher-kilowatt laser weapons have sped up the developmental progress, bringing the raster prospect of high-heat, precision laser weapons to surface combatants. 

Speaking recently at the Directed Energy Summit, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. John Richardson spoke passionately about the developmental acceleration of ship-fired weapons.
