Smart shooter 4 review6/27/2023 Smart Shooter says that with a weight of approximately 15 Kg, SMASH Hopper can be integrated into an existing Command-and-Control system (C2), providing operators with the ability to hand-off or receive targets across existing communications networks.įeaturing a safe trigger mechanism, a mounting solution, and a ruggedized Remote-Control Unit (RCU), SMASH Hopper provides a pan–and–tilt capability for the weapon system and can be controlled via cable or wireless connectivity ,offering day and night capability with automatic scanning and target detection.Īccording to Smart Shooter, SMASH Hopper is ideal for multiple mission areas including force protection, border security anti-drone, remote ambush, and offensive action operations at complex environments. The company says that it has day and night capability with automatic scanning and target detection and therefore is ideal for multiple mission scenarios including force protection, border security, anti-drone, remote ambush, as well as low profile operations at complex urban environments. According to the company, SMASH Hopper is ideal for deployment on various lightweight manned and unmanned vehicles & platforms, with a wide range of applications. The company says it provides “One Shot – One Hit” capability while controlled by an operator from a safe distance or from inside a protected vehicle. The company’s Smash Hopper Light Remote-Controlled Weapon Station (LRCWS), was mounted on Plasan Reem’s Armoured Toyota Hilux and successfully shot and hit several moving ground and air targets from more than 300 meters. Last year, Smart Shooter tested a version of its SMASH systems for infantry soldiers on an armed vehicle. With an increased hit probability for small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) and increased engagement range, Smart Shooter’s SMASH technology has demonstrated the potential to increase the Navy’s ability to engage sUAS at the individual level – using existing weapons and ammunition in inventory. This collaboration aims to perform joint integration and evaluation of Smart Shooter’s technology with weapons and ammunition currently supporting the US Navy’s mission. Under this agreement, the US Navy will evaluate the use of SMASH technology on ships and vessels for Counter-UAS purposes. According to the company, it has also signed a cooperative research & development agreement with US Naval Surface Warfare Centre, Crane Division (NSWC Crane). The purchase was made by the marines Warfighting Laboratory, through its Rapid Capabilities Office (MCRCO). Last year the US marines purchased several of the Smart Shooter SMASH 2000 systems. By combining advanced augmentation display with connectivity to sensors, C4I systems and other SMASH solutions, the SMASH technology enhances the force’s situational awareness and lethality.” The SMASH family of products can be provided separately as stand-alone solutions or in various combinations explicitly tailored to each customer’s operational needs and tactical scenarios. Michal Mor, Smart Shooter – CEO said, “Handheld operated, remotely controlled, robotic or UAV mounted, the SMASH technology provides a multi-applicative capability and enables the platoon to be smart, precise and connected. Equipped with an onboard computer to perform complex targeting solutions, SMASH enables superior situational awareness and can be operated as a stand-alone solution as well as combined with other systems to provide an effective multi-layer defence solution.
