SMART SHOOTER has received an order from the Dutch military and will provide them with its SMASH AD solution for counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (c-UAS) operational use. 

Specifically designed to provide kinetic elimination of small, low-flying UAS, SMASH AD incorporates a laser rangefinder and enables precision targeting of UAS around the clock, with clear day and night vision capabilities. 

Capable of receiving and displaying target information from an external sensor or detection system, SMASH AD enables precise, swift, safe and simple hard-kill elimination of drones up to 250 m (Day Mode).

SMART SHOOTER’s local representative in Holland, Technische Bureau H.A. Muller (TBM BV), will take care of the logistics and direct support.

“We at SMART SHOOTER are proud to provide our leading SMASH solutions to another friendly force,” said Michal Mor, SMART SHOOTER CEO. “We have developed these solutions in order to revolutionize the world of small arms, and I am confident that our SMASH technology will allow the Dutch military to better protect their soldiers, camps and strategic infrastructures against the growing threat of drones.”

Designed to help military and law enforcement professionals swiftly and accurately neutralize their targets, SMASH is a combat-proven Fire Control solution for small arms that ensures each round finds its target. Bringing precision-missile targeting algorithms and advanced electro-optical processing capabilities into standard assault rifles, SMART SHOOTER’s SMASH Fire Control Systems work automatically but not autonomously, and allow the operator to quickly and effectively neutralize their target. The cost-effective solution can be integrated into any type of assault rifle and combined with other c-UAS systems to provide an effective multi-layer defense solution suitable for the modern battlefield.
