[00:00:00]What if you could shoot down a drone for just a few dollars instead of firing a missile that costs over a million? The US Army just made that possible, and it's already happening across America.

[00:00:12]On May 6th, 2026, the Pentagon announced it will deploy high energy laser and microwave weapons at five US military bases. Fort Bliss, Fort Hatchika, Naval Base Kitap, Grand Forks Air Force Base, and Whiteitman Air Force Base, home of America's B2 stealth bombers and one of the most sensitive military sites in the country. The mission, stop illegal and adversary spy drones before they reach America's most critical infrastructure.

[00:00:43]Here's what makes this a gamecher. A traditional missile costs anywhere from half a million to over a million dollars per shot. A laser costs almost nothing to fire. It fires at the speed of light.

[00:00:56]No reloading, no running out of ammo.

[00:00:59]The laser locks onto the drone, heats it up, and destroys it within seconds.

[00:01:04]Enemy drone swarms are becoming a real battlefield threat. Ukraine proved that the US military is not waiting around.

[00:01:12]Missiles won wars yesterday. Lasers may win them tomorrow. The US Army just took its first real step into the age of directed energy warfare. So, here's the question I want you to answer below.

[00:01:26]America deployed these directed energy systems at home, but should they also be on the battlefield?
