Put in place of the ZRS. The United States announced the imminent equipping of the Navy with laser weapons

The United States Navy plans to install a laser weapon Helios on warships and thereby replace guns and rocket launchers. Reports about it Daily Star with reference to the American military.

It is expected that Helios will replace the anti-aircraft artillery complex Phalanx MK-15 and will be able to protect ships from a variety of threats.

We are talking about lasers, which now have the power and beam structure needed to protect against unmanned aerial vehicles, small ships, as well as some short-range weapons

- noted the source of the publication.

Using Helios will free the US fleet from having to keep ammunition on board, the article says. However, experts believe that the American fleet is not yet ready for such innovations. Thus, according to Mark Gansinger, an expert at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments of the United States, an “adequate electrical supply” has not yet been developed for laser weapons.

As previously reported, the United States has noticeably increased funding for the armed forces amid growing tensions with China and Russia.

[Shurik70]

As practice in X³: Terran Conflict has shown, anti-aircraft laser systems are the best solution for short-range defense against missiles, drones and fighters.

[SETTGF]

Shurik70! Baby talk! The laser gun beam attenuates very well in the Earth’s atmosphere, especially when precipitation falls and overcast ...

[SETTGF]

And to the strategists, I will throw up another idea - if you apply the rotation of anti-ship missiles during the flight, then shooting down from the laser will be problematic ...

[SETTGF]

More note for strategists - along a flat path ...

[SETTGF]

Smoke very well attenuates the laser, the reflective coating can perfectly reflect! In order to exclude reflection and scattering of a laser beam, a nuclear-pumped X-ray laser is needed - but humanity is far from that ... Therefore, couch strategists do not make plans!

[Shurik70]

Here you can see right away - few people play games.
Is it the case of American strategists!

[SETTGF]

Dear strategists and the rest of the hedgehog with them, including us! Look carefully at the presentation by Israeli analyst Jacob Kedmi on the new Peresvet laser complex in Russia!

Megawatt ray, which can damage the design of a supersonic piece of iron. In a split second. That's what this flashlight should be able to do. Shoot quickly finding a target, from a swinging deck to a moving object, and have time to retarget another ten. Blind homing devices, maybe there can be, maybe .... But if they have eyes. Optics. And if they have a bunch of different aiming devices. and they work at the same time? Judging by the trolley in which he is hidden, the laser can not hit the entire hemisphere. Forward on the nose.

Yes you give up. To put it this way, an “engineering solution” is a kind of arrogant statement. Like, we mathematicians don’t care why a car on rails knocks. We have explained, long ago, the area of ​​a circle pi-er-square. Here is a square and knocks. Sensors that determine and adjust your dynamics in dynamics do not exist. And even more so, a lot, at the same time and at one point. It is necessary to reach such nonsense. Try to determine the angular error in order to do this. And the step size of the engine to operate in thousandths of an arc second. And the response speed of the system at supersonic approach speeds. Figure here!

At a distance of 5 km, and the desire to keep the beam in the limit of 10 mm, it is necessary to maintain an accuracy of aim of 0,2 arc seconds. The most sophisticated stepper motors have an angle of one step thousands of times larger. To use reducers is to have backlash. And incredibly slow aiming. What to take from him is the exam. How did the dead Zadornov speak of such?

nmetall-shows-off-80.html
The four 20 kilowatt HELs are designed to be fired simultaneously, in a technique known as superimposition. All four fire at a target at once, and Rheinmetall's technology combines them into a single powerful 80 kilowatt beam.
Clear? Four 20 kW lasers are reduced to a target at one point.
And not only the Germans know how to do this. The Americans and Israel have the same systems.

[tchoni]

I understand you perfectly. Not having the opportunity to organize one large and powerful beam, they decided to use the principle of "interferometer vice versa." This is just understandable. I told you a little about something else. If we take and “cut off” the laser beam immediately after the “muzzle cut” of the installation, we will see a single wave front. No homogeneity. If we do the same thing about 1000 meters from the "muzzle", then we will not see a united front. And we will see a certain picture of the “antinodes” and the power of radiation, similar to ripples in the water. So, this "ripple" entails a serious loss of power with distance. Obviously, the guys from DARPA were able to select the radiation spectrum least affected by this effect.

adequate power supply

This is not the most pressing issue. The atmosphere is the main "enemy" of laser weapons, especially at sea. Fog, saturated vapors (moreover, the spectral transmittance depends on the thuy heap of factors, starting from the time of the year, ending with the chemical composition of the sea overboard). In addition, problems with aiming at the target, a delicate optical system, which is contraindicated in the vibration of ship mechanisms, and artillery shooting - this generally knocks down the alignment of all optics. IMHO, laser weapons are effective only in space, and even then, kinetic will give him a head start.

All of these lasers, railguns, and beam weapons are a way to engage a potential enemy in wild financial expenses.
I was wondering. to try to warm up a flying piece of iron at a distance of 5 km, you probably need to have an aiming point of no more than 5 mm. And keep your sight for a while. But it is to control the guidance mechanics within tenths of arc seconds. At the same time, keep the beam following the movement of the target and compensate for the pitching, which affects any marine vessel.
I think these estimates are enough to make sure that the task is impossible. Then what can this device do, and what tasks will it assign?

[aloleggry]

The little things. They will adopt an international law that it is possible to fight only in clear, sunny weather with full calm. To fight in any other weather is immoral, as it violates the human right to hit the target accurately. Violators of the law will be severely punished with a laser beam enveloping the terrain. Russia is hastily creating a counter-laser defense with the help of unparalleled mirrors.

They believe that this will work and fear that Russia will be ahead of them in the field of laser radiation for decades. Or just quietly sawing, which is much more likely.
More than a year ago, he wrote here with arguments why it is impossible to bring down an artillery shell with a laser. The missile is actually even more complicated.
