The Army is officially adopting a 'guaranteed hit' smart scope
Jared Keller - Yesterday 11:20 AM
After years of testing, the Army is officially adopting a specially designed computerized fire control and optic system that will allow troops to lock on to incoming drone threats with their standard-issue rifles and disable them with a single accurate shot.
Israeli company Smart Shooter announced on Friday that it would supply its SMASH 2000L (also known as the SMASH 3000) fire control system to the Army as part of a subcontract from defense contractor Atlantic Diving Supply ahead of the Association of the U.S. Army’s annual meeting in Washington D.C. next week.
The SMASH fire control system, which has previously undergone testing by U.S. special operations forces downrange in Syria since 2019 and the Marine Corps and Navy since 2021, “allows you to acquire, lock on and engage targets … [and] the weapon to fire only when it's a guaranteed hit,” then-CEO Devin Schweiss previously told Military.com.
