Dropping a drone cheaper than coffee

"High-Energy Laser Weapon strategy (HELWS) is able to destruct targets specified as drones, for the price of a cup of coffee a shot," says Jeff E. Newsom III, advanced Power Laser manager Raytheon Intelligence & Space. It stresses that this changes the cost-effect ratio in favour of defence systems. utilizing conventional kinetic weapons, frequently a knocked down drone or bullet is much cheaper than the bullet utilized to destruct it.
