Россия первой в мире запустит лазерные комплексы ПВО в серийное производство

System range — up to 6 km

Russia is the only country in the world where laser systems "Peresvet" are in service and on combat duty in the nuclear deterrence forces. However, anti-drone laser air defense (AD) systems are also in the mass production stage.

The task of "Peresvet" is not to shoot down satellites or missiles, but to blind them. The complex performs "functional destruction", after which the reconnaissance device is not able to perform tasks.

Work on the creation of laser combat systems that could destroy drones and other objects is also actively underway.

There were reports back in the summer about the testing of a laser system that could burn out drone cameras and destroy the devices themselves as they approach the target. The range of the complex is up to 6 km. The design details have not yet been disclosed, but it is clear that since the system has been tested, it may soon go into mass production.

Earlier www1.ru reported that the revolutionary drone "Klyuch" was developed in Russia.
