Products & Systems

Compact Laser Weapon System

ÐÓ°ÉÊÓƵ’s Compact Laser Weapon System (CLWS) is a modular, high energy laser system that provides proven air defense capabilities against unmanned aircraft systems.

CLWS' versatile design enables it to be transported and operated by a single warfighter and configured for mobile use on an array of combat vehicles – providing superior flexibility to support readiness in any environment.

Currently deployed in theater with a track record of more than 300 drones defeated in dozens of demonstrations, scenarios and environments – CLWS is combat-ready today.
