Optical quantum generators based on gas-dynamic, electric discharge and chemical bases are ineffective and expensive to create laser weapons, and therefore scientists have changed approaches to the development of appropriate means of destruction. This was stated to the "Military-Industrial Courier" by the head of the Department of high-power lasers of the Institute of General Physics (IOF) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, full member of the Academy of Military Sciences Viktor Apollonov.

According to him, now the leading countries of the world are working on a new weapon - strategic and tactical solid-state LAW. "We will learn about this success of the new generation solid-state LO very soon, when the leading countries equip their armed Forces (armed forces - approx. "Tapes.ru") compact and light tactical LO complexes with a capacity of up to 500 kilowatts, capable of solving a wide range of tasks in power and functional modes, respectively, at ranges of many tens and hundreds of kilometers," the Doctor of Sciences warned.

The head of the Institute's department is confident that "at the next stage, when a high-energy strategic LO with an impact range of thousands and tens of thousands of kilometers will go into space (and this will inevitably happen through the efforts of the United States), the cost of lost time will become well understood by everyone."

The scientist noted that currently "significant progress in the experimental development of promising areas for the creation of lightweight, compact and effective tactical law in Russia is not observed."

In August, Breaking Defense, citing its own sources, reported that in the near future the Pentagon will announce and demonstrate secret space weapons. Experts interviewed by the American publication said that in this way the United States will show Russia and China its new anti-satellite development. Breaking Defense admits that an unnamed system may use, for example, a mobile ground laser, an electronic jamming device or a microwave cannon.
