It is also this set of laser emitters that are very small, and can even be mounted on vehicle-mounted platforms and large aircraft and ships, and the defense group is now developing this project as a key project, and is also developing a 55 kilowatt single fiber laser to make the damage distance of laser weapons farther.

Now Huaxing Group's technology in this area is basically mature, in fact, there is no need for Yang Jie to deliberately formulate the development direction of product technology, these scientists are in laser technology to Yang Jie proposed a number of research projects.

Yang Jie also approved the laser weapons project for these multiple weapon platforms.

In fact, the research institute under the domestic military industry group company is now also starting to prepare high-power laser weapons in the gallium nitride materials provided by Huaxing Group Company, but Huaxing Group has done the best job in the research and development of semiconductor laser light sources and optical fiber gain systems.

At the beginning of the research and development of ruby laser technology on the high-energy laser emitter, the helium-neon gas was used as the light source, but this laser needs to consume a lot of others, and because of the limitation of domestic material processing technology, the quality of the discharge tube is very poor, and the life of the laser is very short.

And before the domestic integration of production, education and research is very poor, in the laser industry can not form a scale, these technology research and development is mainly maintained by the state's appropriation, because the country attaches great importance to this aspect, there are many laser research institutes in China, but a large number of technical personnel have been trained.

This is mainly due to the fact that the Soviet Union and Eagle Sauce frantically developed laser weapons in the eighties, forcing the country to invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in this area, but it has accumulated a lot of technical reserves for the domestic laser technology research and development.

After the establishment of Huaxing Group, Yang Jie quickly transformed these laser technologies into industries, used in optical disc drives and optical communication products, and the company also set up a research and development center in Europe to absorb technical talents in these aspects, and also purchased technical patents to cut into the field of fiber lasers.

Now Huaxing Group has mastered a large number of technical patents in fiber lasers, and in the civilian field, it mainly produces a large number of products such as optoelectronic communication products and laser processing and testing equipment, which has brought a steady stream of cash to Huaxing Group.

Now it is very easy for Huaxing Group to transform these technologies that were originally used in civilian products into military use.

The airborne laser weapon system mainly includes a high-energy laser system and a high-precision follow-and-aim launch system, the high-energy laser is the core of the laser weapon system, and the high-energy laser beam with the ability to generate and destroy the laser beam. The carrier platform requires the laser system to be as small as possible in size and weight. From the beginning of the manufacture of airborne laser weapons to the present, the laser system based on high-power, high-energy lasers and the integrated system of tactical units have basically changed from gas lasers to chemical lasers, and finally to the process of using solid-state lasers.

Huaxing Group entered the field of laser technology by jumping directly to the field of fiber lasers with gallium nitride laser light source and fiber laser gain technology, and it was in place in one step.

This set of laser weapons developed by the defense group company uses crystal and glass as laser medium, relies on electrical drive, compact structure, low cost, wide use, strong adaptability, suitable for compact weapon systems, so it is more suitable for carrying on aircraft platforms, and has a great advantage, that is, it is easier to penetrate the atmosphere than chemical lasers.

This is also the reason why this fiber laser emitter developed by the defense group company can reach a damage distance of 4,000 meters with an energy of 33 kilowatts.

What's more, as long as there is a supply of electrical energy, this set of laser weapons can work non-stop, and the irradiation interval is very short, which can deal with multiple targets.

Both gas and chemical lasers consume a large amount of excitation material, and although the conversion power of gas lasers is very high, the maximum will not exceed 40%, which means that more than 60% of the energy will be converted into the heat energy of the gas, which will increase the temperature.

The increase of gas temperature will lead to the decomposition of gas molecules, reduce the concentration of gas molecules in the discharge tube, overheating will cause the output power of the laser to decrease, and even the occurrence of "temperature quenching", so there is no way to work for a long time, and the start time is also very long, so it is destined that this high-energy laser can not be used in actual combat.

Chemical laser weapons are the most mature type of laser weapons, and the common chemical laser weapons at present are aerobic iodine laser weapons, hydrogen fluoride laser weapons, deuterium fluoride laser weapons, etc.

However, these chemicals are basically dangerous chemicals, although they can emit continuous beams, but the beam quality is poor, and the thermal effect is serious when operating at high power, requiring a large cooling system, which also causes the system to be very large and has a relatively long start-up time.

If this set of chemical laser weapons is to be kept on standby at all times, the combustion chamber will have to burn chemicals constantly, and the waste will be huge.

Eagle Sauce's goal was to install high-energy chemical oxygen iodine laser weapons on large wide-body passenger aircraft Boeing aircraft, which can intercept intercontinental or theater ballistic missiles in the booster stage from an altitude of 12,000m 250km away, and also developed megawatt-level high-energy laser weapons, but the chemical fuel that Boeing aircraft can only carry can ensure that this system can be launched about 24 times.

Because the number of warheads of the Soviet nuclear weapons became a nightmare for Eagle Sauce, desperately trying to intercept these ballistic missiles, so they developed these laser weapons at any cost.

However, these chemical laser weapons developed by Eagle Sauce still cannot meet the design goals, in order to achieve the design goals, this set of laser weapons must be made larger, Eagle Sauce has invested a lot of research and development funds in this area to improve, but they have little effect, and there is no way to solve some problems such as greatly increasing the range of laser weapons and using a large number of dangerous chemicals, resulting in chemical lasers are not suitable as airborne laser light sources.

At the same time, the Eagle Sauce military also used oxygen-iodine chemical laser technology to demonstrate advanced tactical lasers on airborne platforms such as C-130 Hercules transport aircraft, V-22 tiltrotor aircraft, and Chinook transport helicopters, which are used to shoot down cruise missiles and sea-skimming missiles.

According to the data, the effective range of this laser weapon varies greatly, exceeding 30 kilometers at the best and less than 8 kilometers at worst.

Up to now, the Eagle Sauce military DaRPa is still developing the "high-energy liquid laser area defense system" laser technology, which is intended to be integrated into the bomb bay of a supersonic strategic bomber such as the qiāng cavalry for test flight verification, and to conduct live-fire tests on typical air and ground targets.

Yang Jie naturally can't turn a blind eye to the fact that the Eagle Sauce military is desperately developing laser weapons, but he doesn't want to follow the Eagle Sauce ass desperately to develop high-power chemical laser weapons, but sees the advantages of solid-state lasers, because the power of fiber laser monomers is developing rapidly, and the key is that these monomer lasers can use the topology of the main oscillator and amplifier, and the laser generated by the main oscillator is split and amplified with multiple amplifiers, and the defense group company is also conducting research and development in this area.

That is to say, the single solid-state laser can be coherently synthesized and output, which can avoid the damage to the laser medium caused by the high power output of a single laser on the one hand, and can be scaled up to obtain higher output energy on the other hand.

The next step in the research and development of the defense group company is to increase the power of the laser weapon to about 130 kilowatts after the synthesis of four lasers, and if the technology is mature, Yang Jie hopes to be able to synthesize six single lasers to reach about 200 kilowatts.

After all, the performance of this single laser emitter developed by the defense group company is also very good after the test, the photoelectric conversion efficiency has reached more than 40 percent, and the maximum power can be reached in less than 0.3 seconds, and the test has worked continuously for more than ten minutes, and the performance is very stable.

Over the years, Huaxing Group has obtained the best technology and a large number of talents from Western countries such as John Bull and Germany through acquisitions and cooperation, so that the defense group company can design and manufacture the world's top solid-state fiber lasers.
