I wonder about the energy requirements for this 100kW laser. I’m sure this is pulsed energy, not continuous, but still, I would expect the power supply to be fairly robust, likely too robust to be carried in a light aircraft.

Yeah, airborne lasers are carried in a large transport/jumbo jet type aircraft, not a light aircraft or fighter jet.
