Claim 13:
14. A system, comprising:
a platform; and
an active protection system operably engaged with the platform, the active protection system comprising:
a threat cueing sensor provided at a first position on the platform, wherein the threat cueing sensor detects a threat launched from a threat guidance system at a distance away from the platform;
a logic system operably connected to the threat cueing sensor, wherein the logic system is adapted to determine an estimated location of the threat guidance system via a distance away from the platform, wherein the Iodic system dynamically estimates the location of the threat guidance system from a predetermined point between the platform and the threat guidance system when the platform rotates or translates from the initial position to the translated position; and
a laser source operably connected to the logic system, wherein the laser source emits a countermeasure beam directed at the estimated location of the threat guidance system to deter the threat away from the platform.
