| High-energy
lasers are the only systems proven effective against small,
late detection threats such as artillery rockets. Offering
accuracy and lethality, this speed-of-light capability promises
to transform the battlefield. Northrop Grumman is now developing
a mobile variant of the Tactical High Energy Laser (THEL)
that destroyed artillery rockets and shells in testing.
A Mobile THEL will allow warfighters to defend against
advanced, widely-proliferating threats such as unmanned
aerial vehicles, short-range ballistic and cruise missiles,
and air-to-surface munitions.
