Abstract
Provided are a threat-countering system and a threat-countering method for efficiently countering incoming threats by using laser irradiation. The threat-countering system comprises a countering device, a deterrent device, and a decision device. The countering device detects incoming threats and counters the threats by using laser irradiation. The deterrent device is installed to prevent threats from approaching a protected object through a deterrent region in which the power of the laser irradiation is assumed to be lower than a predetermined threshold. The decision device decides the position of the upper end of the deterrent device on the basis of the upper end of the deterrent region.
