U.S. Navy’s new HELIOS (High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance) system burns through metal and neutralizes incoming targets at the speed of light. Currently mounted on the guided-missile destroyer USS Preble (DDG-88), it fires continuous 60kW energy beams with virtually unlimited ammo—powered directly by the ship.
