Claim 0:
1. A directed-energy weapon comprising:
an effective beam optical system;
an imaging optical system, wherein the directed-energy weapon is configured to display a position of an impact point of the directed-energy weapon, wherein the effective beam optical system is configured to focus and align a primary radiation of the directed-energy weapon to be emitted as an effective beam or auxiliary beam, and wherein the imaging optical system is configured to receive radiation exiting from an object irradiated with the effective beam or the auxiliary beam and to direct the radiation to a camera; and
a reflective optical auxiliary element with which a beam bundle cross section of an effective beam or auxiliary beam exiting from the directed-energy weapon is adapted to be covered, and with which the primary radiation directed out of the directed-energy weapon is adapted to be reflected,
wherein the imaging optical system is configured to receive the primary radiation of the effective beam or of the auxiliary beam reflected from the reflective optical auxiliary element and to direct such onto a spot of the camera, and to display the spot as an impact point on a screen, and
wherein the imaging optical system and the effective beam optical system are arranged in a housing, which has an effective beam exit opening allowing radiation to exit the housing and allowing radiation to enter the housing, and wherein the reflective optical auxiliary element in the form of a cover closing the effective beam exit opening is adapted to be fastened to an edge of the effective beam exit opening.
