China Civil Laser Cannon from huangxiangfeng's blog

Regardless of how to calculate, the U.S. military in the technical advantages are in the lead, which is behind the huge investment in technology research and development, which, laser weapon technology is currently a major focus. The purpose is very simple, not only keep the technical field of the first position in the world, but also to other countries but the idea was broken off, the China progress in technology of laser weapons. Laser technology in the early 60s that caused Chinese attention began to begin the research and development of laser weapons, in 80s, it was included in the "863 national high tech research and development program, development today, has made no small achievement.

This system has actually been put into actual combat conditions, which is a leader in the field of 5000mw green laser weapons, other countries before, was only completed a verification test to prove that laser fairly intercept air targets, but do not have into combat conditions. Currently only 10 kilowatts of power, from the intercept has no less than two kilometers, if to raise my performance, such as: the power boost to 30 kilowatts, the effect would be like? If you can intercept distance raised to three kilometers, to raise the height of 1000 m intercept, the target flight speed of 300 m / s, it can replace the combat effectiveness of small caliber antiaircraft artillery and anti-aircraft missile man! "Low-level guards" Although being a civilian, in fact, have the military capability, even in itself reduce the performance of the military model, deliberately limit the number of performance parameters.

Chinese on laser weapon development is strictly confidential and does not disclose any information, only occasionally show some results appear, 2014, laser weapon system China discloses codenamed "low altitude guard", from the public data, the single system defense area of 12 square kilometers, the performance has been quite small caliber level to a height of 500 meters below, the distance is within 2000 meters of the target interception, but its interception rate is very high, at the scene of the demonstration, it shot down the continuous fixed wing and rotor, helicopter and other small aircraft more than 30 sorties, 100% hit rate. The problem is that it is a laser cannon, but also just the Chinese civilian laser cannon, which is called "civil security system" ". Mainly used for dealing with the small UAV, the characteristics of the "low, slow, small" target, namely: low altitude, mostly in the 500 meters; slow flight speed of about 50 m / s in the following; small diameter within 1 meters of the small aircraft.

Weight and volume of the existing system of effective, all devices are integrated into a system of only two small side compartment, if the development of military type, can be larger, mounted directly to the motor chassis, motor development becomes a 3000mw laser pointer defense system or directly on the ship, instead of near Artillery warships. When this system is very advanced, we display the "low-level guards" in 2014, the United States still does not show a similar product, until a year later, it launched 30 kilowatts of "Athena" laser weapons, in the test, it was shot down UAV mile away, and within a few seconds to 5 mm thick steel burn holes.
