Ukraine's new AI-powered laser "Tryzub" can burn holes in Shaheds from 5 km away

A Ukrainian-developed laser air defence system known as “Tryzub” has been configured for mobile deployment and is undergoing final testing, with its developer reporting multi-range capability against different types of drones, Militarnyi reports.

The system is developed by Ukrainian company Celebra Tech and is designed to counter aerial threats ranging from small FPV drones to larger reconnaissance and strike UAVs.

The Tryzub system has been mounted on a trailer-based mobile platform, allowing it to be transported and rapidly deployed between different operational areas. The configuration effectively turns the laser into a mobile anti-drone system designed to protect infrastructure, military positions, or other high-risk sites depending on evolving threats.

There is a video of a Tryzub being tested in the link. I'm in awe at how Ukrainian innovation is moving at such a fast and furious pace.

1. I am in awe too. Of course we all know the true motivator of these enhanced weapon systems, War and the Russians.

I am in awe of how Ukraine has stood up to the Russians and tRUMP.

2. today shoot down drones, tomorrow shoot down commercial airliners. hmmmm nt

3. UMM. If you're referring to that Dutch airliner shot down over Donbas, that wasn't

the Ukrainians who shot it down. It was the Russians and their lackeys who invaded Donbas. It's been proven.

4. referring more to new tech that might end up in terrorists hands eventually

5. This sounds very encouraging in anti-drone warfare.

Along these line I was wondering if lasers like this one could be used to severe all those FPV fiber-optic drones fibers just by sweeping the sky behind the drone.?

6. You know, that's a very good idea!
