  All these technical advancement should be concentrated over the development of human community But we debate on the boon and bane of technology and then we forget about it.Is it right to use this monster on Human beings.

  The US economy is mostly a 'war economy'. There are several very big corporations that make weapons and sell them to other countries for profits. Rolls Royce, for example makes jet engines for war planes. They must keep on developing and selling weapons to sustain their economy. Plus, a war fought on non-US land benefits the country.
  
  That however, better be discussed elsewhere & certainly not in this thread.
  
  What's interesting is that they're developing the non-chemcial, closed loop laser systems. I wonder how do they carry the power backups. That truck, pictured above seems to be 80% battery and 20% Laser machinery.

  This monster when unleashed on the battlefield can destroy enemy tanks. That is their sole purpose I guess. Apart from that, use of lasers can allow them to attack straight in line of sight up to extremely far distances. It might be developed keeping in mind the desert war regions where Battlefield is actually over hundreds of hectors. This can be helpful in reducing bombarding load over air-force. Also this weapon can be enhanced to work as anti-missile too.

  I can take a wild guess. 40% minimum. This is definitely a brainchild of Indian Engineers. 😛

  US already has this kind of weapon called Airborne Laser which can destroy any missiles attack. But this can be used for ground attack as well, US is piling up different types of destructive weapons.

  As it is already stated above. US is a war-economy. They sell every type of weapon man can ever make. They would weaponise a coffee maker if they could.
