The UK army has tested a new laser weapon capable of destroying a flying drone. Source: European Pravda with reference to the UK Ministry of Defence Details: The UK Defence Ministry reports that the military has conducted a successful test of the new laser weapon system.

The UK Ministry of Defense has successfully tested a new laser weapon system, known as DragonFire, designed to shoot down Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or drones. This test, conducted at the Ministry's Hebrides Range in Scotland, marks a significant advancement in directed energy weapons technology. DragonFire uses a high-power laser to engage targets at the speed of light, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional missile defense systems, with each shot costing less than £10 ($12.70). The system's precision allows it to hit a £1 coin from a kilometer away, showcasing its potential for both military and civilian applications in countering aerial threats. The successful trial has paved the way for further development and potential deployment, with the UK aiming to integrate this technology into its defense strategy to counter evolving aerial threats.
