Abstract
The Airborne Laser Advanced Concepts Testbed (ABL ACT) is a low power beam control testbed located at the northern end of White Sands Missile Range. The purpose of ABL ACT is to explore advanced beam control concepts for laser propagation under high scintillation conditions. This paper gives the capabilities of the system and subsystem that are in place or will be in place within the next year.
