Hypersonic weapons meet speed-of-light defenses
Breaking Defense
Raytheon Missiles & Defense is developing high-power microwaves as part of layered air defenses.
They’re two of the biggest threats to U.S. and allied military power, and they could hardly be more different.
One is the hypersonic missile, which travels at more than five times the speed of sound and can strike targets at great distances.

Israel to spend $150M on laser defenses, after US hesitation
Breaking Defense
Israel plans to pour about $150 million into the development of its laser air defense system known as Iron Beam, after the US apparently declined for now to take part in the funding.
An Israeli government committee overseeing acquisition a few days ago approved more than 500 million Israeli shekels ($148 million) for the laser-based rocket interceptor developed by Rafael, according to the Israeli daily Haaretz.

High-energy laser weapons ready for the front lines
Military Aerospace
High-energy and laser weapons seem to be perpetually on the metaphorical horizon. Over the decades, the U.S. military has tested them for a variety of applications, from blinding sensors to disabling enemy vehicles.
Field tests in the last few years prove the interest of government and industry in demonstrating lasers with increasing wattage.

Noisecom noise generators and standalone noise sources can address the critical needs of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) reduction by driving coherence spreading to minimize retroflected scattering, allowing for high optical power transmission. Coherence spreading using a random noise source reduces each laser module’s sharp waveform (peak power) by modulating the phase of the laser.
