Any updates on any of the other laser systems that have appeared in the past years? Most of these seem to be for export.

1. CY-30

2. CS/OW2

3. SD10A

Granted, the Silent Hunter seems to be the most promising/capable.

LW-30, CY-30, and CS/OW2 all showed up again in Zhuhai airshow 2022. LW-30 also showed up as a miniature model in World Defence Show in Riyadh. Not sure about the other ones.

Looks like Western media are catching up on the news. Unfortunately this one needs membership/money for access.

This is Silent Hunter.

Poly just nailed a SR370 million deal in air defense with Saudi Arabia.

The MoD signed another SR370 million contract with Poly Technologies to obtain air defence systems for the RSADF. Dr. Al-Biyari and Poly Technologies President Huang Geming inked the deal.

- Where the Saudi air defense was able to intercept suicide drones using the Chinese "Silent Hunter" laser system, with very high success and efficiency.

Seems like someone got themselves an official commendation for downing a lot of UAVs with the Silent Hunter.

But to know the bigger picture we need to know what houthi throw at Saudi, how many, what's intercepted and whats not. And how Houthis still manage to struck key oil structures.

Do keep in mind that Saudi only has one unit for testing purposes until this March, where they officially purchased additional platforms. Rumor I heard was 13 drones downed.
