Summary / Abstract (Note)For decades, the development of directed energy weapons foundered on physical and logistical limitations, while the great expectations made on such weapon systems could not be matched by performance. Yet directed energy may now be reaching a new phase of maturity. New emphasis on lower-powered systems could offer an advantageous set of tools, particularly useful where force must be kept to a minimum and non-lethal effects are preferred.
