South Korea Deploys Laser Weapons to Counter North Korean Drones
ai generated text
South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration has announced plans to deploy a laser weapon system, known as Block-I, which is capable of precision attacks on small incoming drones and multi-copters. According to reports, the system was developed by Hanwha Aerospace and will be mass-produced at a cost of approximately $56 million. Each shot fired by the laser weapon lasts between 10-20 seconds and is reportedly silent and invisible to the naked eye.
It is invisible and noiseless, does not require separate ammunition and can be operated only when electricity is supplied.
Our country is becoming the first country in the world to deploy and operate laser weapons, and our military's response capabilities on North Korea's drone provocation will be further strengthened.
