Its weight is almost 50 kg.<\/p>\n<p> The laser is planned to be installed at stationary positions and NRCs. One of the main challenges for the developer remains ensuring tracking of the air target during flight.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We are currently working on target tracking. That is, we cannot yet track objects for a long time. We need to &#8220;lead&#8221; the target for some time &#8211; 5-10-15 seconds to destroy it. We are not yet able to ensure good accuracy, but we are working on it,&#8221; the developer noted.<\/p>\n<p> The SlimBeam laser is designed specifically to combat small drones, as larger targets require more power.<\/p>\n<p> The developers note that the laser is already effective in civilian use.<\/p>\n<p> SlimBeam can remove obstacles from hard-to-reach structures, such as power lines or high-rise buildings, and cut tree branches.<\/p>\n<p> Previously, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/zsu-otrymaly-na-ozbroiennia-modul-khyzhak-iaki-yoho-harakteristiki\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine codified and approved for operation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine the domestic remotely controlled combat module \u201cPredator\u201d<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ukrainian company Fulltime Robotics is creating a portable SlimBeam laser to combat enemy FPV drones.
