Experimental setup configuration and lasing experiments results on fission fragments pumping of gas lasers are presented. The IPPE's fast burst reactor BARS-6 has been used as a neutron source for nuclear pumping of lasers. Experimental results on nuclear pumping of 'master oscillator-amplifier' pulse laser system and energy parameters of 1.73 {mu}m 5d-6p Xel transition of Ar-Xe laser and amplifier are presented. Neutron characteristics of system were compared with computed ones. It was shown that experimental and calculated results are in a good agreement.
