SMARTSHOOTER, an acclaimed innovator in fire control systems that significantly increase hit probability against ground and aerial targets, will present its combat-proven SMASH fire control systems at the MILIPOL exhibition in Paris. SMASH is a cutting-edge Weapon Fire Control System (FCS) equipped with onboard computing capabilities for intricate targeting solutions. Once the user identifies the target independently or through the detection system guidance, SMASH takes over, locking on the target and tracking its movements to synchronize the shot release for swift and precise hits. 

Smart Shooter’s SMASH technology provides high precision against small targets across land, air and sea, including mini- and micro-UAS. Smart Shooter presented its SMASH family of fire control systems (FCS), including handheld operated, remotely controlled, and UGV mounted systems, at the DSEI exhibition in London this week.
