The Pentagon has plans to deploy its first ever ship-mounted laser
next year, a disruptive, cutting-edge weapon capable of obliterating

Navy officials announced Monday that in early 2014, a solid-state
laser prototype will be mounted to the fantail of the USS Ponce and sent
to the 5th fleet region in the Middle East for real-world experience.
