I saw a presentation from these guys at a network "dog-and-pony" show. Based
on their vague comments on its development, it sounds like they originally
developed this technology for the Navy, but now are trying to commercialize
it.
Their big claim to fame is that the electronics (including the laser) are
connected to an optical "antenna" by fiber so that the electronics don't have
to be exposed to the elements.
They claim that their technology can cut through all but 100% fog, when the
rain is falling at 6in/hr etc. etc (This is where the vague comments about
being able to communicate between ships in a storm without being detected by
DF equipment were made).
The stuff is pretty expensive, however ($ 10K).
