Lockheed Martin's demonstrates laser anti-missile defense system.

Lockheed Martin makes and tests a fully functional laser missile defense system.

As well as providing the equipment necessary to fire missiles, defense contractors also want to offer customers the ability to defend against them. Lockheed Martin is doing just that with its Area Defense Anti-Munitions (ADAM) system, and has released a new video demonstrating it disabling a missile mid-flight.

ADAM is a high energy laser system mounted on a trailer allowing it to be transported around quickly to help defend high-value targets. It is still in prototype form, but basically uses a 10-kilowatt fiber laser which can be focused on to a moving target up to 2 kilometers away. That directed energy can disable or destroy the threat before it gets anywhere near its intended destination, and it does so without costing a lot of money to use repeatedly.

You can watch ADAM taking out a missile in the video below. In all, ADAM managed to destroy 8 such missiles during a recent test that occurred in April.

Although the laser’s range is limited to 2km, ADAM can actually track objects up to 5km away, and by plugging in an external radar can take a cue to engage with an unmanned aerial system (UAS). For a missile response, ADAM is a completely self-contained unit capable of detecting the threat, aiming, and firing the laser to disable and destroy it.

Fit it on an UAV and go Play Station!

If you go to that link, you will see that it is not exactly portable. So putting it on a UAV is out of the question.

^^Innovation, but it will be in American hands they will not sell it just like the f22.

I know it's not portable, but what I said is just one possibility.
