What is really cool:

“"Our conservative data tells us a shot of directed energy costs under $1," Klunder explained. "Compare that to the hundreds of thousands of dollars it costs to fire a missile, and you can begin to see the merits of this capability."”

It's the same lazer they announced a couple years back. The only difference is that they're pointing it at Drones now as apposed to just sea and land targets.
