The UK’s LDEW capability is advanced and progressing well towards boosting our future Armed Forces capabilities.

DragonFire could offer UK Defence significant operational advantage by delivering enhanced air defence capabilities to the frontline, while reducing expendable ammunition costs and reducing risks of collateral damage.

This joint endeavour by Dstl and industry is another example of UK Defence spearheading future technology that can make our Armed Forces more effective and agile.

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) – along with its Defence industry partners MBDA, Leonardo and Qinetiq – is publishing ‘never seen before’ declassified footage of the DragonFire Laser Directed Energy Weapon (LDEW) system, in action over the skies of the Hebrides.
