Lightweight Optical Turret for Extended Capability HEL (LOTECH)

The grant aims to develop a lightweight, highly accurate laser beam director for airborne applications. The device should be able to focus a high-energy laser from an aircraft moving at Mach 0.8, compensating for aerodynamic effects to maintain precision on a target. Under the Direct-to-Phase-II format, applicants must first demonstrate feasibility through similar prior work not funded by SBIR…

To develop a fully functional lightweight 10 centimeter class high energy laser beam director for tactical airborne applications. The beam director must be capable of propagating a high energy laser from a transsonic (Mach 0.8) airborne platform while effectively compensating all relevant aero-e…
