Directed energy weapons such as HELW promise to provide revolutionary capabilities to the warfighter. Soukos Robots S.A. Researches and develops weapons for military missions and civil defense in all over the world. This directed energy technology enables the passive detection and targeting of threats including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, rockets helicopters, smaller and larger vessels. Mini drones represent a new type of threat demanding new solutions, beyond any conventional weapon system. Mini drones have recently disrupted high profile events flying over protected locations. Highly precise and adjustable laser weapon systems could protect major events and critical infrastructures.

Speed the energy is aimed to the target by means of an intense beam in the speed of light.
Flexibility Not affected by gravity. Due to this capability, HELW can easily engage and neutralize targets that attempt to attack with high speed and maneuvers.
High precision The laser beam can be aimed at a target and destroy it in a big range of km.
Mission Capabilities Wide range power force can be aimed at the target. In this way, lethal or non-lethal missions can be completed.
Cost Low cost effective
Support The laser beam is activated through electrical power enabling the HELW to shoot multiple targets is less than 2 seconds without the need to refill.

 

According to the statements of Mr. Souko, the system has been tested against a tank, as a result of which it pierces its armor in just 12 seconds. At present, for the year 2022 the system is being evaluated by the Hellenic Armed Forces © Konstantinos Panitsidis
