1.前言激光武器在瞬间将大量的准直光能量射向目标,这将提供一种崭新的杀伤机制,使军事作战产生真正的突破,并可能在21世纪成力具有相当威慑力量的武器。随着前苏联的解体和冷战的结束,世界战略格局向多极化发展,各国相应地调整了军事战略,强调对付局部战争。激光武器的研制也从战略应用转向战术应用。舰载高能激光武器被认为是对付未来超高音速、高机动飞行反舰导弹的最有力杀手。将激光器作为 1. Introduction Laser weapons target large amounts of collimated light energy in an instant. This will provide a new mechanism of killing that will make a real breakthrough in military operations and may be a weapon of considerable deterrence in the 21st century. With the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, the world strategic pattern has developed into a multipolar state. All countries have readjusted their military strategies accordingly and emphasized that they should deal with local wars. The development of laser weapons also shifted from strategic applications to tactical applications. Shipboard high-energy laser weapons are considered to be the most powerful killer against future ultra-high-speed, high-maneuver anti-ship missiles. The laser as
