PASS can create plasma in mid-air by focusing to a point.
These systems would be portable and lightweight; the battery operated solid state laser system would be comparable in size to the Armbrust and Dragon anti-tank systems, …. The man-portable… weapons system is expected to be lethal in the range of 1-5 miles, due to the fact that no sharp focusing of the laser beam is required. Therefore, it is capable of engaging both short and long ranged targets of any kind, greatly increasing the engagement area of current assault rifles.
They may also be able to create significant electro-magnetic pulse effects, and there has been work on tuning these to stun or paralyze humans.
