0:03The U.S. Army announces that the prospect of developing laser weapons for combat troops is
0:08"very close." Mary J. Miller, deputy assistant secretary of the Army for Research and Technology,
0:13recently said extensive tests were being performed to make sure lasers could fight threats ranging
0:19from rockets to cruise missiles. Miller said the army wants to deploy the weapons by 2023,
0:24but first wants to understand its full capabilities. While the Army figures out the larger lasers,
0:30smaller, less-capable lasers will be coming out relatively soon to do
0:34"good things on smaller platforms" according to Miller. Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force has already
0:39begun laser trials. Dr. David Walker, deputy assistant secretary of the
0:43Air Force for Science, Technology and Engineering, said it has been using lower power lasers under
0:49its transport aircraft everyday. In December, the Air Force said it had plans to put lasers on
0:54fighter jets by 2020.

0:08“非常接近”。玛丽·J·米勒，陆军的研究和技术副助理国务卿，
0:13近日表示，正在执行了大量的测试，以确保激光器可以打威胁范围
0：19from火箭巡航导弹。米勒说，陆军希望在2023年部署的武器，
0：24but首先要了解它的全部功能。虽然陆军数字出更大的激光器，
0：30smaller，-能力较差的激光器会相对很快出来做
0:34据米勒“在较小的平台上的好东西”。同时，美国空军早已
0:39开始的激光试验。戴维·沃克博士，副助理国务卿
