摘　　要：高能激光器很久以前便展示出为舰队防卫掠海飞行中导弹的潜力，这种能力可大大降低反舰巡航导弹对舰队的威胁。海军研究实验室在海军研究局主持的5年科学和技术计划之基础研究部分——“6．1计划”中研究了电子束泵浦的Ar—Xe激光器。结果表明，Ar—Xe激光器具有满足海军安全、功率、尺寸、光束质量、电驱动和大气传输等要求的巨大潜能。High Energy Lasers （HELs） long ago demonstrated their potential to destroy missiles in flight, a capability which could significantly reduce the threat to the fleet arising from anti - ship cruise missiles. However, no HELs have been deployed to date. Until recently, there was no laser that had credible prospects of meeting the Navy＇s requirements for safety, power, size, beam quality, electrical drive, and atmospheric propagation. The electron beam pumped Ar - Xe laser has been investigated in an ONR - sponsored 6.1 program at NRL. The results of this program indicate that the Ar - Xe laser has strong potential to meet these requirements.
