Department of War CTO(@DoWCTO):Under Secretary Emil Michael (@USWREMichael) on the @DeptofWar's focus on scaling directed energy weapons: "The stronger the beam is, the bigger the munition it can take down, and the farther it can go. But then, the bigger it is. So, can you start to make the size of the [system] smaller so you can move it around, make it more mobile?... How do we engineer to perfect these systems so they're better for every scenario?"
