Chinese military scientists have announced a major breakthrough in laser weapon technology, claiming they have developed a new cooling system that allows high-energy lasers to operate “infinitely” without any build-up of waste heat.

“High-quality beams can be produced not only in the first second, but also maintained indefinitely,” they said. “Unfortunately, 60 years have passed and while various types of lasers have been developed, the application of high-energy laser systems has not been successful.” “The true reason for the cancellation of these projects was that their destructive power did not meet expectations,” the scientists said.

The beam control system is responsible for directing and controlling the laser beam, typically through the use of mirrors and lenses. This system must be highly precise and stable, as even small deviations or vibrations can cause the beam to miss its designated course. It is designed to be compact and efficient, with a focus on optimising gas flow and minimising size and weight.

The gas injection/suction system is responsible for injecting the gas into the internal beam path of the laser system and removing it after it has passed through.
