Russia expands Laser Air Defense Forces: The "staff" shoots down drones without ammunition and on any armor

 

(Posoh) the "Staff" laser system

Against the background of the growing threats from unmanned aerial vehicles, a new promising anti—drone system has appeared in the Russian armed forces - the "Staff" laser system (Posoh). It is reported that the new weapon is capable of effectively disabling small UAVs at a distance of up to 2 km, providing high mobility and autonomy of use.

Unlike the Peresvet laser system already in service, which is used in stationary or semi-stationary conditions, the Staff is a more compact and mobile solution. The installation is powered by batteries and can be placed on almost any armored vehicle, making it ideal for operational deployment in the field.

The principle of operation of the system is the pinpoint effect of a laser beam on key elements of the drone.:

- failure of electronics; 

- melting of wires and structural parts;  

- damage to engines and impaired aerodynamics.

According to experts, the advantage of the laser is that it does not require traditional ammunition — the "ammunition" does not run out, and shooting is possible an unlimited number of times, as long as there is energy. This makes the system cost-effective and highly efficient in the face of intense drone counteraction.

The creation of such technologies demonstrates Russia's desire to reach a new level of countering drones, especially in modern warfare, where strike and reconnaissance UAVs play a key role.

Given the successful development of laser technologies and their implementation in tactical units, we can expect further development of this area in the Russian defense industry.
