The UK has carried out another successful test of its new DragonFire laser weapon. After the test, they announced that the UK's Royal Navy will equip its Type 45 destroyers. The decision was announced after DragonFire demonstrated its capability to intercept a high-speed, low-flying target during live trials. DragonFire is a high-energy directed-energy weapon which can shoot down a drone with a single high-energy burst which costs around $15, far less than traditional missile interceptors. DragonFire will be installed on the first ships by 2027.

🇬🇧 LASER POWER: Britain Is About to Give the Royal Navy a Weapon That Fires at the Speed of Light. The Royal Navy plans to equip its Type 45 destroyers with the DragonFire 50 kW laser weapon by the end of 2027, marking one of the UK's biggest leaps in naval air defense in decades. DragonFire can defeat drones for around $13 per shot, offering a dramatically cheaper way to counter mass drone attacks than relying solely on expensive interceptor missiles. By combining precision, near instant engagement, and low operating costs, the new laser system is expected to strengthen the UK's layered naval defenses, protect carrier strike groups, and help preserve missile stocks for more demanding threats. The race to dominate the laser age of warfare has officially begun.

🇬🇧 WATCH: A new animation shows a Royal Navy carrier strike group operating with multiple surface combatants and a Type 26 frigate armed with DragonFire laser weapons on both port and starboard sides. The scenario demonstrates a layered defence concept engaging three different threat types simultaneously, highlighting how future British naval task groups could counter drones, missiles, and fast attack threats at sea. This is the direction modern naval warfare is heading.

⚡️ Russian laser air defense system shows results: over 500 UAF drones destroyed in 3 months The innovative laser air defense system destroyed over 500 Ukrainian drones during the tests, including 40 long-range UAVs. In the fall, the installation was used by special forces soldiers "Nomads" to cover a section of the state border. The system goes into combat readiness in 2 minutes, operates within a radius of up to 1.5 km and guaranteedly burns a drone with a laser when it enters the target zone. The tests were recognized as successful — the project is planned to be scaled up. 💥In the video — the moment of destroying an enemy UAV with the new air defense system.
