Summary:An optronic system (100) for a countermeasure unit (10) to optically communi-cate with another communication terminal is disclosed. The countermeasure unit (10) comprises a laser beam source (12) and a directing device (14) for a laser beam (15) of the laser beam source (12) and is configured to dazzle or to jam an object of threat (50). The optronic system (100) comprising: a detector (110), a modulation unit (120), and a control unit (130). The detector (110) is configured to detect an incoming communication in an incoming signal (25). The modulation unit (120) is configured to demodulate the incoming signal (25) or cause a modulation of an outgoing laser beam (15). The control unit (130) is configured, in response to the detected incoming communication, to control the modulation unit (120) to demodulate the incoming signal (25) or to modulate the outgoing laser beam (15) to enable an optical communication via the laser beam source (12) of the countermeasure unit (10).
