ERIS Shopping Notice: High Duty Cycle High Energy Lasers (HEL) for SWaP-Constrained Systems
Summary
DARPA’s Strategic Technology Office is issuing a shopping notice for moderate‑power (1–20 kW) high‑energy lasers that can operate at high duty cycle in size, weight and power constrained platforms such as Stryker vehicles or collaborative combat aircraft. The solicitation seeks innovative, post‑competitive solutions that could be awarded quickly to enable laser weapons on mobile, SWaP‑limited systems.
