I’ve been watching Tech Ingredients search for the best shield material to test their Drone destroying extreme high power laser setup indoors for obvious reasons.
I’m personally skeptical of laser based weapons, given that they have one wavelength. once one is developed and deployed, it will be trivial to paint drones with a reflective paint specific for that wavelength.
The results is a nation investing 100s of millions on a weapon, that once deployed will be countered by 1000s $ of spray paint.
imagine if you could get a t-shirt that could deflect a any bullet. that’s what still happen with laser based weapons.
I think that wouldn’t necessarily work once you get to the right wavelengths for it to start interacting with the organic bases of the paints. There’s only so much you can do when someone shoots an infrared laser at the resonant frequency of a C=C double bond.

It turned out to be fruits/veggies. Nothing else came close. So he went with panels filled with thickened water.

I never knew a disintegration ray was possible.
ups, made an integration ray instead, it does calculus on whatever you shoot
