The system, unveiled at the Defense and Security Equipment Industry Expo in London, features four high energy lasers mounted on turret, making it look like some kind of laser Gatling gun, Popular Mechanics reported.

An anti-drone laser system.
When the British massed tanks for the assault a Cambrai in 1917, only a year after they had been first deployed, they encountered German artillery batteries trained to hit moving targets. The first anti-tank guns.
Every measure begets a countermeasure.

a technique known as superimposition which combines them into a single powerful 80 kilowatt beam. It's superposition. Superimposition is a term used in graphic arts and design where one image is overlaid with another.
