The DRDO successfully tested a Mk-II(A) Laser - Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) system.
The lightning speed of engagement, the precision and the lethality delivered at the target within few seconds, made it the most potent counter drone system.
Once target detected by a radar or by its inbuilt Electro Optic (EO) system, laser-DEW can engage targets at the speed of light and use an intense laser beam to cut through the target.
