HAF Headquarters, Arcadia: Today, the Minister of Defence announced the successful firing of the experimental laser weapon, The Demon, on the HNS Vilberg. It fully destroyed a dummy beacon as a target that was supposed to represent a specific point on an enemy warship that would cause the most damage to the said warship. This is the first-ever laser weapon developed for the Hubdovan Armed Forces that has been successful. There have been three versions before this that have been semi-successful, but not good enough to be installed on any naval ships because of the lack of reliability, the high costs, and the low power output. These previous three versions have been placed in the Nesmour Naval Museum in Nesmour, Omattäs, Hubdova.
The laser is classified as an electrolaser. An electrolaser is a laser that is similar to how lightning works. First, it ionizes the path that the laser will take to the target by sending a small electrical charge through the air, performing simple ionization by removing an electron (e-) from the ozone particles (O3) in the air. This ionization process can be shown as the chemical equation of O3 + e- —> O2. Then, a more powerful electrical charge is sent along this ionized path like lightning to its target to cause damage.
More replicas of this weapon are planned to be constructed, with some being extremely high-powered ones, capable of firing into the upper levels of the atmosphere at the least. These will be placed in precise places around Hubdova, for the optimum firing range. They will be used in the case of intercontinental ballistic missiles fired at, over, or near any Hubdovan district or territory.
