AN/SEQ-3 Laser Weapon System
The Laser Weapon System or LaWS is a directed-energy weapon developed by the United States Navy. The weapon is to be installed on the USS Ponce for field testing in late 2013 or early 2014.[1][2][3]
In 2010 Kratos Defense & Security Solutions was awarded an $11 million dollar contract to develop LaWS in support of the Naval Surface Warfare Center for the U.S. Navy’s Directed Energy and Electric Weapon Systems (DE&EWS) program.[4]
