The Smash Hopper is a versatile rifle and mounting system that can be installed on a tripod, vehicle, or maritime vessel to engage targets.

explains, drones are becoming increasingly common among countries and militant groups, so it's crucial to have effective detection methods against small drone threats. While commercial drones can often be linked to their operator and disrupted through jamming or spoofing, autonomous drones, and similar threats may require a more aggressive approach.

Smartshooter's Smash 2000L, a fire control system mounted on a rifle, has already been tested by the Marines and is a vital tool within the US defense community. While the system is not yet operational, it has undergone successful testing and verification. According to company representative Aloni, "Both the SMASH Hopper and the SMASH 2000L are combat proven and have been used operationally. They're ready to go.

Sharone Aloni, the company's vice president for research and development, said that though they worked on this combination over time and it’s not yet operational, this is the first time they are revealing it to potential customers. It operates based on remote commands given by the operator. In addition, the radar developed by RADA, another Israeli company, can detect drones from several kilometers away and not notify combat units of potential threats.

Combined, the gun can “slew and cue” in a hand-off from the radar. “In such a way, the weapon is pointed in the right direction and ready to engage when [the drone] reaches the [rifle’s] range. It is a kind of early warning system so the system can be ready to engage the target,” said Aloni in an interview. But there is always a person in the loop, Aloni said.
