Gulu lankhondo la US Air Force likuyandikira cholinga chake chokonzekeretsa ndege ndi zida za laser. Omwe adayesa ku White Sands Missile Range adawombera bwino mivi ingapo yoponyedwa pazifukwa zamlengalenga pogwiritsa ntchito Self-Protect High Energy Laser Demonstrator (SHIELD), kutsimikizira kuti imatha kugwira ntchito ngakhale zovuta.
Ngakhale kuti SHIELD pakadali pano ndi yopanda pake, yokhazikika pansi, ukadaulo ukuyembekezeka kukhala wosunthika komanso wolimba mokwanira kuti ugwiritsidwe ntchito m'ndege.
Komabe, palibe chifukwa chothamangira zinthu: kumenyana ndi makina owuluka okhala ndi ma lasers sadzawoneka posachedwa. US Air Force idangopereka mgwirizano kwa Lockheed Martin mu 2017, ndipo mayeso oyamba amlengalenga sadzachitika mpaka 2021. Zidzatenga nthawi kuti dongosololi liyambe kugwira ntchito.
Malingana ngati teknoloji ikugwira ntchito monga momwe ikufunira, ikhoza kukhala ndi zotsatira zazikulu pa chitukuko cha ndege zankhondo. Zida za laser sizidzakhala zokhumudwitsa (osachepera, sizomwe zikupangidwira pano). Ndipo ikupangidwa kuti ikhale yowombera bwino komanso yotsika mtengo yoponya mivi (yonse ya air-to-air ndi air-to-ground), komanso ma drones. Malingana ngati palibe zopinga panjira ya laser, ndegeyo imatha kukhala yosavulazidwa ndi mizinga ndikuwongolera mlengalenga.
