US Army Uses High-Energy Laser to Destroy Drones Near Mexico Border

The US Army has successfully used a high-energy laser system to shoot down drones near the Mexico border. The weapon is part of a new generation of directed-energy technology designed to detect, track, and neutralize aerial threats. Unlike conventional weapons, the system uses a concentrated beam of light to destroy its targets. The development marks a significant step forward in the military's use of advanced laser-based defense capabilities.
