摘要

Clearly there are major milestones, significant challenges, and exciting new technologies facing the high-energy laser community for the next decade or so. High-energy laser weapons research is arguably on the knee of the technological development curve. Weapon-class chemical laser systems―THEL, ATL, and ABL―have demonstrated, or will soon do so, their worth in appropriate environments. The High Energy Laser Joint Technology Office is pushing state-of-the-art, solid-state lasers for tactical applications. Finally, advances in cooperative beacons and advanced adaptive optics are enabling relay-mirror technology to emerge as a significant force enhancer for all high-energy laser systems. These are indeed exciting times, but it is a very tough job and the Air Force cannot expect to be totally successful. Future combat capabilities, as forecasted by these demonstrators and to the degree they are successful, will greatly benefit the US war fighter and provide unprecedented asymmetric war-fighting capabilities for the twenty-first century.
