These tests laid the groundwork for the eventual development of a laser weapon system for the German Navy.

The German armed forces conducted the first tests of laser weapons to protect against drones and missiles. This was announced by the Federal Office for Equipment, Information Technology and Technical Support of the Bundeswehr (BAAINBw) on Thursday, October 27.

Tests were conducted on the frigate Saxony. Based on their results, evidence was obtained that moving targets “can be successfully combated under combat-like conditions.”

“A live shot was fired into the sea in front of the Putlos military training ground, and the test results show that laser weapons can significantly expand the capabilities of the Bundeswehr,” the statement said.

It is indicated that these tests laid the foundation for the possible development of an operational laser weapon system for the German Navy.

The equipment is installed in a shipping container and includes a target detection and data processing system, as well as the laser itself.

It was previously reported that the United States had tested laser weapons at sea. The US military then destroys a floating target in the Red Sea with a laser weapon from the ship Portland.
