This is the C-UAS Interceptor mentioned in an article from 2024. Of course, this is not yet a full-scale implementation project; it is still in the stage where ADD is proactively developing the technology. However, as mentioned in the article, there are indications that the goal is to achieve a level of maturity sufficient for immediate use in actual combat.

In fact, during this event, they showed footage of a launch from a tube-type launcher, as well as footage of an interceptor drone pursuing and intercepting an S-BAT (a small reconnaissance drone used by the South Korean military) at a speed of 200 km/h, along with footage of warhead tests.

Under development to defend key facilities against various threats such as rockets and artillery shells using a high-power 100 kW-class laser.

It aims to achieve a total output of 100 kW by overlapping three 34 kW single beams.

This demonstrates a 50-kW laser penetrating a steel plate after being directed at it for 11 seconds from a distance of 2.1 km. I think there's a video, but I can't find it.

This is the mobile laser air defense system that was briefly unveiled last time. It combines a laser module with the K877, which is the command vehicle variant of the K808.

The laser power is in the 30-kW range. It will be unveiled next month anyway, during the drone-versus-drone battle.
