  Author(s): Muhammad Tayyab Muneeb*
  
  The history of laser-guided weapons can be traced back to world war-II which augmented the development and use of smart munitions against combat vehicles in various conflicts, globally. Literature highlighted that active and passive defence technique can either be used to neutralize or avoid the incoming laser guided weapons attack. Active defence system uses counter munition to destroy incoming threat while, passive defence system is based on thickening of armor or counter measures like high beam lasers, flares, camouflage or smoke screens. This research examines active and passive defence techniques in combat vehicles against laser-guided weapons under the lens of exploratory research method. It aims to study defence techniques and compare technologies adopted by contemporary armies to explore future prospects of such technologies especially in developing nations. Results have shown..
