Megawatt Laser Weapons Are Coming to Trump Class Battleships.

The Navy’s top officer says directed energy should become the first line of defense against close-in threats like drones and cruise missiles. With traditional missile and gun magazines running dry in high-intensity combat, lasers promise an almost unlimited magazine, lower cost per shot, and a new way to defend high-value warships. We break down how current systems like HELIOS and ODIN work, why the Navy is looking at 300-kilowatt, 600-kilowatt, and even megawatt-class lasers, and what technical challenges still stand in the way. From power generation and cooling, to targeting in harsh maritime environments, this video explains what it would really take to put high-energy lasers on the Navy’s next generation of surface combatants. We also look at how drones, cruise missiles, and saturation attacks are reshaping naval warfare, why loadout optimization matters, and how directed energy could change the balance between offensive and defensive weapons at sea. *************************************** Combat Wire brings you the latest military news, defense updates, and tactical insights.
