Australian tech firm Electro Optic Systems (EOS) has unveiled Apollo, a new high-energy laser weapon designed to disrupt the sensors of drones ranging from small quadcopters to larger uncrewed aircraft.
The weapon generates 100 kilowatts of power, expandable to 150, and provides 360-degree coverage during vertical engagements.
When connected to external power, Apollo can reportedly fire without limit. But in isolated mode, it has enough stored energy to carry out more than 200 engagements.
