The Russian Peresvet combat laser is designed to destroy satellites at a height of hundreds of kilometers.

The Peresvet Russian combat laser system, which was actively ridiculed by American experts about a year ago, believing that it is unlikely to be able to shoot a drone more than one kilometer away, turned out to be a truly unique weapon designed to destroy spacecraft and even ballistic missiles at several hundred kilometers high.

A key feature of the Peresvet Russian combat laser system is that it is able to focus the laser beam in such a way that practically all existing Russian missiles can be guided along it, including both anti-aircraft and cruise missiles, which are launched from airborne carriers. By “highlighting” its target in the planet’s orbit, the laser allows you to hit space objects, including military spacecraft, at distances of hundreds of kilometers with an accuracy of a few centimeters, while the space sector covered by the laser allows you to control thousands of kilometers.

According to experts, in fact, the Peresvet laser complex is a gunner of Russian missiles to combat targets in space, and today no other country in the world has such a complex, and it’s impossible to somehow block the Peresvet operation.
