The U.S. Navy has tested its new LOCUST laser defense system aboard the USS George H.W. Bush, designed to counter the growing threat of drone swarms. The high-energy laser weapon is capable of detecting, tracking, and destroying unmanned aerial threats in real time. Developed by AeroVironment, the system represents a shift in modern naval warfare, focusing on low-cost, rapid-response defenses against emerging drone-based threats. The test highlights how advanced directed-energy weapons are being integrated into U.S. carrier defense strategies.
