Three DE M-SHORAD military close-in defense laser systems are currently deployed in Iraq. During the tests, it is planned to evaluate their actual ability to repel attacks from small drones, as well as to intercept mines and missiles.

In September 2023, the American Army created the first experimental military air defense unit, which was equipped with exactly 50 kW laser systems - a separate platoon as part of the 4th Battalion, 60th Air Defense Artillery Regiment at Fort Sill (4th Battalion, 60th Air Defense Artillery Regiment at Fort Sill, Oklahoma). Of the 4 vehicles in the platoon, 3 are now in Iraq.

Based on the results of the tests, a decision will be made on whether to put the complex into service or send it for revision.
