Still a long way to go
Philip Coyle, the Pentagon?s chief weapons tester under former President Clinton and a critic of early missile defense deployment plans, described the test on Wednesday as very important to people working on the program.
?They deserve a lot of credit for having gotten this far,? he said in a telephone interview. ?But they?ve still got a long way to go? to demonstrate shoot-down capability.
Among other technical challenges, Coyle said, engineers must figure out ways to fire the laser for the longer time needed to zap a missile without damaging the optics through which the beam passes ? a kind of technical Catch-22.

More power
In coming months, Englade said, engineers hope to boost the duration and power of the laser?s beam. It will then be installed on a 747-400F aircraft for a test that includes shooting down a dummy ballistic missile over the Pacific. No date has been set for that test.
A multibillion-dollar ground-based system for detecting and destroying missiles fired from a country like North Korea is due to be declared ready for operation by the end of next month.
The ground-based system, also integrated by Boeing, is meant to be the first leg in a system that could ultimately include the airborne laser as well as interceptor rockets that could become the first weapons based in space.
