美国海军舰载高能激光武器

舰载高能激光武器作为一种新概念武器，以其响应速度快、机动性好、打击精度高、发射成本低等优点受到了各国海军的关注，成为舰艇反导防御的首选装备。分析了美国海军研制的中红外先进化学激光器／“海石”光束定向器、固态激光武器的系统结构特点，介绍了美国海军极为看好并大力发展的自由电子激光武器的一种设计方案。

U.S. Naval Shipborne High Energy Laser Weapon

The shipbome high energy laser weapon, as a new concept weapon, draws the attention of navy of many countries and is considered as the preferred choice for naval antimissile defense, for the advantages of quick response, good maneuverability, high shooting precision, low utilization cost. etc. The structural characteristics of mid-infrared advanced chemical laser/SeaLite beam director and solid state laser developed in U.S. are analyzed. A kind of conceptual design of free electron laser is introduced, which is in favor and developed greatly in U.A. navy.
