The directed energy based laser is not the issue. That's actually relatively easy to create. It's the tracking algorithms and data used to direct the energy to a single point, accurate tracking speed and amount of mass to impact, plus being able to move that laser at 180° as it tracks at speeds of up to one second across the entire arc, creating G forces of up to 8G on the mass of the optical systems. This is very difficult and required extensive new technologies in optics design to maintain the 99.99% accuracy of the optics.
