    The Air Force has shipped three of its latest directed energy weapons overseas.
    The weapons, HELWS, PHASER, and THOR will protect air bases from drone attack.
    The weapons are the result of three years of testing in the U.S. and will serve overseas for at least one year.

The U.S. Air Force has sent three different directed energy weapon systems to protect air bases abroad. The HELWS, PHASER, and THOR weapons will guard U.S. air bases from the threat of drone strikes, shooting down any unauthorized drone that comes within microwave or laser range. The new weapons are a response to the new threat of weaponized drones and drone swarms attacking airfields.
