    Well I’m basing this off what I’ve seen the Chinese get up to, they have these mounted on trucks so if there is some kind of effective counter like super smoke, idk, inclement weather conditions (lmao), they just don’t roll it out.

    Also if these ever get mounted on fighter jets it might be wise to make them part of the automated drone fleets that are gonna be flying in locked formation like Blue Angels. Just don’t send out the laser drones unless necessary idk.

    I’m just speculating. You’re stuck buying our shitty F-35s or whatever lol

        Well the power limitations and cooling issues that were previously considered to be insurmountable have been, so you may be right. I guess the question is can it effectively dispatch missiles headed to jets.

        Taking out drones with a tank mounted direct energy weapon seems very feasible or having other shit around that can do that
