Israeli Technology Helps Take Down Gaza Drones and Balloons
(Jerusalem Post) Anna Ahronheim - The SMASH 2000 fire control system developed by Israeli company Smart Shooter to accurately neutralize moving targets has been deployed along the Gaza border by the IDF. The combination of simple hardware and advanced image-processing software can turn every soldier into a sharpshooter. After the shooter locks onto the target and squeezes the trigger, the system calculates the target's movement and prevents the bullet from being fired until the target is precisely in its cross hairs. In the last round of violence in Gaza, the IDF said there were multiple attempts to attack troops along the border using drones.
