The paper presents a comparative analysis of the dynamic loading of a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) target by a polyethylene (PE) projectile exposed to laser radiation with similar initial energy characteristics of the projectile and the laser pulse. The similarities and differences in the mechanisms of the target's response and its destruction to high-speed mechanical and laser action are shown. A higher efficiency of laser irradiation in the destruction of PMMA was found, and the conditions for the transition of the fracture mechanism from brittle to elastic-plastic were shown.
