The final configurationof the Airborne Laser willdeploy four different lasersystems on a modifiedBoeing 747 transport.Construction of theAirborne Laser entailsintegration of severalcomplex subsystems ona commercial airframe.Once operational, theAirborne Laser will offera rapidly deployableresponse to theater-rangeballistic missiles.9
The Tactical High-EnergyLaser has successfullyengaged dozens of rocketsand artillery rounds.In order to operateeffectively on the battlefield,tactical lasers must trackand engage threats withina few seconds.The Mobile TacticalHigh-Energy Laser(MTHEL) combineslaser lethality withrapid mobility.10
