two thousand and twenty-fourThe Paris Olympics are currently in full swing,On the world-renowned Olympic stage,To ensureThe safety of athletes, staff, and spectators,Ensure the smooth operation of the Olympic Games,Multiple technological achievements have made a brilliant debut, providing strong support for the competition.Among them, the French armed forces deployed to prevent terrorist attacksHELMA-PThe laser anti drone system is eye-catching.

HELMA-PLaser anti drone systemyesProduced by French Laser Industry Company（CILAS）And the European Missile Group（MBDA）Joint development.CILASIt is a subsidiary of Ariane Group, a restructured Airbus Safran carrier rocket company, with a strong background in laser technology and military applications.

According to the company's introduction,HELMA-PThe system is an optical guided omnidirectional laser weapon station, mainly composed of high-energy laser emittersTheComposite infrared/TV optical trackerandComposed of a dual axis omnidirectional stable base，Can be in-30°Cto60°CEffective operation within a wide temperature range.The high-energy laser emitter adopts onetwoKilowatt fiber lasers can generate high-energy laser beams for destroying or controlling drones. Composite infrared/The TV optical tracker has high-precision detection and recognition capabilities, and can capture real-time information such as the position, speed, and heading of the drone. Dual axis omnidirectional stable basecanEnsure that the laser emitter maintains a stable aiming and firing state in complex environments.

The HELMA-P system is capable of integrating data from various sensors to optimize safe operations. Its electronic surveillance system can detect and prevent drone threats by recognizing electronic signals.Provide a layered approach to address drone threats, from blinding surveillance devices to changing structures to reduce weightone hundredKe Zhitwenty-fiveMicro drones weighing between kilograms rapidly descend to eliminate them.HELMA-PCan be integrated with various detection and monitoring systems, such as optics, radar, and sound. Due to its independence from ammunition, it has extremely low logistical requirements and is designed to strike moving targets with extremely high precision. It is compatible with any command and control process or combat management system, enabling accurate, immediate, and sustained firepower.

HELMA-PsystemThe reason why it stood out and was selected by the French government as the security system for the Olympics is because it hasHigh precision detection and recognitionTheLong range and efficient destruction, highConcealment and low noiseTheSecurityHigher characteristics. HELMA-PThe system is capable of detecting, identifying, tracking, and destroying1-2Within a kilometer range“Low, slow, small”Drone systems, surface boats, and even cruise missiles. The system's range can reachonetosevenKilometers, with power levels ranging from optical interference to complete destruction or ignition，Capable of burning or losing control of key components of drones in a short period of time, achieving effective destruction. The system is concealed in appearance, difficult to detect, and produces almost no noise during operation, with minimal impact on the surrounding environment，Can operate in urban areas.systemThe laser beam will quickly dissipate after hitting the target, without causing secondary damage to the surrounding environment, effectively avoiding harming innocent people.

In addition, HELMA-PLaser anti drone systemIt can also be used for other military operations,It has been applied in the surveillance system of the French Air Force and successfully disabled drones at multiple distances.two thousand and twenty-oneyearsevenmonthsevenOn the day, the French General Administration of Weapons and Equipment（DGA）A test called“HELMA-P”Test firing of a prototype anti small unmanned aerial vehicle laser weapon.During the test launch, the box type laser weapon placed on the tripod can detect itthreeA small drone thousands of kilometers away, this weapon emits a laser beam that canoneWithin a range of kilometers“Destroying or blinding the drone's camera system”.

During the Paris Olympics, the system was deployed in the main venues and surrounding areas to provide security for the events.HELMA-PThe laser anti drone system, with its unique working principle and efficient performanceOlympic SecurityIt demonstrates significant application value. In the future, this system is expected to be applied and promoted in more fields, becoming an important weapon to deal with drone threats.
