Abstract

Scientists knew for many years that either a coherent monochromatic light eollimated beam; a beam of charged particles or neutral energy particle, can carry potentially destructive amounts of energy, capable under certain circumstances of melting or cracking metal. Effective range could be many thousands of kilometers. An United Nations protocol signed during their session from September 25 to October 13, 1995 banned use or transfer of blinding Laser weapons Yet there are reports appearing that the‐ advanced nations are engaged in serious research work to develop Laser and particle beam weapons Revolution in Military Affairs is on the anvil and it may be coming through the potential use of these Directed Energy Weapons. Such extraordinary kill mechanisms of future weapon systems raise a lot of questions in the military mind as well as about its implications.
