Directed energy weapons focus high-energy emissions to launch an offensive against the enemy such that there is minimum collateral damage. Electromagnetic waves (masers, lasers, radio frequency, and microwave), supersonic sound, and particles with mass could constitute the energy used to attack the enemy. Directed energy weapons can have vast applications. Some of their potential applications are in damaging armored vehicles, missile defense systems, jamming electronic devices, and anti-personnel weapon systems.
