The battery startup powering the laser-weapons race

# Battery Startup Powers Military Laser Weapons A new company called Chariot Defense is bringing advanced battery technology from electric vehicles and aircraft into military weapons systems, specifically to power laser weapons and other high-energy defense tools that soldiers use in the field. The founder realized that breakthrough battery technology developed for Tesla and Rivian wasn't being used by the military, even though it could solve a major problem: keeping battlefield equipment powered in remote areas. The company's modular battery system can power everything from drones and radios to futuristic directed-energy weapons.
