Can the US plan to install airborne Laser weapon for the F-35 be realized?

美國要在5年內推出鐳射版F-35，大概率是洛馬LANCE，在設計中，LANCE就是掛在F-16機腹上的。只是現代空戰都是超視距作戰，而機載鐳射的功率一般都在100千瓦之下，有效射程只有20公里左右，用處並不是很大。
The United States is expected to launch the laser version of the F-35 within 5 years, with a probability of the Loma LANCE. In the design, the LANCE is attached to the belly of the F-16. However, modern air combat is Beyond-visual-range missile, while the power of airborne laser is generally below 100 kW, and the Field of fire is only about 20 km, so it is not very useful.
