User blog comment:CocoonOne/TLS in real life/@comment-1824272-20120816204411

I consider the Arkbird's laser a copy of the TLS (not the anti-air laser shots on the top of it, I'm talking about the huge laser on its belly). We used the Arkbird's laser against the Scinfaxi's ballistic missiles in Mission 7 of Ace Combat 5.

The Boeing YAL-1 is an anti-ballistic missile weapons system.

Therefore, YAL-1 = real-life TLS.
