If you would like to see the Terra-3 facility, I would provide you the Earth coordinates:
45.881°N 73.533°E
I was recently lucky enough to attend a technical meeting where a Russian scientist gave a slide show presentation covering the history of Russian high energy laser research. They spent billions on all sorts of CW and pulsed lasers. They went for the massive power levels without worrying about the weight or size of the systems. Impressive facilities. They especially liked explosively driven pulsed lasers.
