BAE Systems develop technology to protect pilots from lasers

Our engineers have developed a low cost, lightweight, flexible system that can block dangerous laser light to protect pilots and flight crew from hostile attacks.

Utilising a novel film the technique is selective in the way it prevents laser transmission, meaning a high level of natural light through can still shine though the canopy with minimal colour distortion.

As a result, pilots are protected from dangerous laser incidents with no deterioration in vision.
