LASER has been frequently used in every area of the military sector since 1960s. Laser’s destruction power and metal cutting capability, besides its ordinary use as measuring device or target designator, have always attracted attention. However, the requirement for great amount of mobile energy has stood out as one of the most pressing questions.
The fact that today’s technologies are capable of solving problems, has once again brought forth the destructive power. In the 60th issue of C4Defence, LASER's history, evolution and usage were introduced. It is of utmost importance to remind that LASER is the most significant discovery in natural sciences in the 20th century. Indeed, around 30 scientists working on this subject have received the Nobel Prize for their contributions.
