The directed energy weapons market was valued at $4.9 billion in 2022 and is estimated to reach $22.2 billion by 2032. The rising demand for high-energy lasers is driven by their efficiency and effectiveness as a supplement to traditional kinetic energy methods, particularly against emerging threats like unmanned aerial vehicles.
