US Airborne Laser (ABL) shoots down boosting ballistic missile

It is also possible that a few years following the ABL entering operational service, other advanced militaries may have ground-based anti-air lasers in service as well.

Awesome news!! Does anyone know whether the sister project to ABL, the advanced tactical laser, has succeeded against ground targets?

Apparently, the ATL has damaged a moving vehicle in a test last fall, and also already defeated other, stationary targets. How effective that system can be or how close it is to being operational I dont know.
