According to the "militaristic" resource, a high -power CHIMIRA microwave antennas system is intended to protect military facilities from medium and long -range air facilities. The technology also allows you to read the target data and continuously track its flight. As part of the tests, directed energy flows struck several static goals of different configurations. Powerful equipment releases energy waves that overload electronics and thus disable devices.
"Powerful microwave systems are economically efficient and reliable solutions that play an important role in multilayered defense, increasing the depth of defense and giving fighters more opportunities for rapid victory over opponents," says Colin Wilan, President of Advanced Technology Raytheon. Strong partnership between Raytheon and AFRL, as well as our dedication to developing necinotic solutions that can resist more and more complex threats.
" Chimera was developed within the framework of the US Directed Energy Front-Line Electromagnetic Neutralization and Defeat (Defend). The cost of a contract with a fleet for three years is $ 31. 3 million. Supply of working prototypes of the system is expected in 2025-2026 financial years. Every year, the US defense department spends approximately $ 1 billion on the development of weapons that would affect the air targets from land transport, aircraft and ships.
