The Active Denial System - Defense Technical Information Center
Introduction
Since the end of the Cold War, U.S. Armed Forces have participated in many operations
that combine military operations against combatants in situations where the civilian
population is at risk. Such complex operations, as they are now called, necessarily place
troops in close contact with local civilians―and sometimes in confrontations that lead to
violence. Use of force against civilians can create local tensions that undermine efforts to
rebuild a society and, thanks to the globalization of communications, widespread
condemnation that can jeopardize the entire mission.
冷戦終結以来、合衆国軍は、民間人が危険に晒される目にあっている交戦国に対して、
軍事作戦を結集する数多くの軍事行動に関与して来た。

この様な複雑な軍事行動、それは、今や、局地の人々と密接な連携を保ち、時に、暴力衝突すると、必ず軍隊を置くとされている。

民間人に対する武力の使用は、一つの社会を再興へと導く努力を阻害する地域限定の緊張を生み出すだろうしやがては、全任務を危機に陥れ入れられる糾弾を広範囲に及ぼす情報交換の国際化に感謝する。

Non-lethal weapons provide an additional set of tools for our troops engaged in complex
operations. Research efforts to advance the types and efficacy of non-lethal weapons
available to our warfighters is producing novel capabilities. One such capability is the
Active Denial System (ADS). ADS can provide our troops a capability they currently do
not have, the ability to reach out and engage potential adversaries at distances well
beyond small arms range, and in a safe, effective, and non-lethal manner. The ADS can
immediately compel an individual to cease threatening behavior or depart through
application of a directed energy beam that provides a sensation of intense heat on the
surface of the skin. The effect is overwhelming, causing an immediate repel response by the targeted individual. The vignettes below illustrate two of many possible applications.
