Chinese company GuoRong unveils new anti-drone laser

According to an article on the Chinese Army's Weixin account, a new anti-drone system from the Chinese company GuoRong Technology (国 蓉 科技 有限公司) has successfully conducted a series of test shots in the eastern suburbs. from Beijing.
The photos and video made public showed that this system, dubbed simply " Short Range Key Site Defense System " (要 地 近距 净空 防御 系统), fired at least twice with its power laser class of kW, including one on a plate of aluminum a few millimeters thick at a distance of 360 meters, and another on a drone that seems to be the model Phantom 3 of the Chinese manufacturer DJI flying at nearly a kilometer of the anti-drone system.
In less than ten seconds of illumination, the metal plate was pierced with a hole about four centimeters in diameter, and the drone, with its control unit destroyed by laser fire, finally crashed to the ground.
But the laser is not the only anti-drone weapon in the system, which is also equipped with an electro-optical jamming device to be able to neutralize not only drones of "big consumption" but also small flying machines, controlled or uncontrolled, which fly below 600 meters.
Compared to two other Chinese anti-drone laser systems , the " Silent Hunter " from Poly Tech and " low altitude Guard II " (低空卫士II) of the Institute China Academy of Engineering Physics , that of GuoRong Technology certainly offers a less powerful "Hard-kill" solution with less scope, but which is accompanied and complemented by other "soft-kill" possibilities to cope with various interception scenarios.
GuoRong's anti-drone system now consists of two trucks, one with a small rotating radar with a range of about 55 km plus electromagnetic interference antennas, and the other with an infrared turret, a tower optronic tracking and laser transmitter. As a result, the entire system is mobile and autonomous, making it easy to deploy to sites with little support infrastructure.
We also learn that the system had already conducted four drone interception tests organized by government organizations this year, and the results would be very satisfactory.
YONG Dan (雍 丹), product manager at GuoRong, says the company has already received two orders, and has also initiated trade talks with Chinese Police in Sichuan Province and Chengdu International Airport. -Shuangliu.
It should be noted that GuoRong is a subsidiary created in 2011 by Chinese group Baoding Swan (华 讯 方舟), which specializes in high-speed mobile network technologies. The company also offers drones, probably for military use , without the details being revealed. The pictures published on the site of GuoRong suggest that they are drones-shells and drones with inflatable sails.
