For the First Time Laser System Takes Down Drone at US Navy Test
The US Navy has tested cutting-edge defense tech—including AI drones and laser weapons—at the latest Joint Interagency Field Experimentation (JIFX) event.
For the first time in JIFX history, a laser weapon successfully tracked and destroyed aerial targets, marking a major milestone in modern military defense.

To power these advanced weapons, Chariot Defense introduced a high-voltage battery system, replacing noisy, fuel-powered generators and improving battlefield stealth.
A groundbreaking 3D printing unit, xCell by Firestorm Labs, was also showcased—allowing troops to manufacture drone parts directly on the battlefield.
The Tempest drone, a modular uncrewed aerial system with a 675-mile range, demonstrated its potential for rapid deployment in combat zones.
This historic test proves that laser weapons, AI-powered drones, and battlefield innovations are set to reshape military operations like never before!
