The IDF's New Weapons in the Gaza War
(Jerusalem Post) Alex Winston - The IDF has revealed some of the innovations introduced over the first three months of the Gaza war. They include the precision "Iron Sting" mortar with increased accuracy against terrorists in crowded areas, helping troops avoid collateral damage. The new "Holit" and "Yated" shoulder-fired missiles have longer firing ranges than their predecessors. The "Ido" night vision device provides soldiers with a three-dimensional image to help them navigate in pitch-black areas. The SMASH fire control system identifies an enemy within seconds and can lock onto targets and assist in their elimination, improving the chances of hitting an enemy fourfold.
