Lasers best defense is a anti laser, and a mirror is a great example of that.

ya why use a laser that travels instantly, costs nothing when you can use a 5m missile that can be shot down easily
not to mention lasers can be used as AA or to shoot down /anything/ coming at the boat as its doesnt have to deal with airfriction, turbulence or anything else a missile does

Yeah but a mirror reflects the laser, making it's effects useless.
I'd be much more impressed by a weapon which can knock out all computer systems, completely destroying most AA, nuclear, and communication technology. I assume it's done, but I'd also assume there are defenses.

'A nuke can do that'
No it can't....... If you can't land it due to defense systems. Nore can they take out protected missile systems, and computers, and you can communicate underground.

BTW I've just done some quick research, real quick.
Mirrors do absorb some light, or laser in this case, so just making a box of mirrors isn't going to protect you for too long. |

If the Laser can absorb the wavelength the laser is fired in, as well as dissipate the energy it absorbs, then it is a great defense.
Baring Mirrors, you can use other surfaces that absorb lasers.
Since lasers are just very intense energy (photons)

Also,if the technology is there for lasers. 2 Things:
Why can't a mirror be invented that counters it? Could you also not send an anti laser to hit the laser beam.

@The blissful.
In WW2, We went from piston engines to jet planes.
Also, if the US made a laser, would russia not just simply design a counter. If a country feels threatened, millitary advancements can happen EXTREMELY quickly.

Panda.
A laser travels at the speed of light - very fast. You can't detect a laser until it hits you. In which case, good luck sending off another beam to counter it. |

Yes. Correct. That would be more depending on the weapon design whether it was continuous for lets say a 10th of a second.
