The U.S. Army is issuing the call to develop an ultrashort pulse laser.
The laser is designed to unleash “enormous power†in a fraction of the time a regular laser weapon lasts.
The weapon should have the ability to fry a target’s electronics with an electromagnetic pulse.
The U.S. Army wants to develop a new laser weapon that is more powerful than existing weapons by nearly three orders of magnitude, but lasts just a fraction as long.
