What are SMARTSHOOTER fire control systems designed for?
The growing threat posed by sUAS and FPV drones
The abstract and concrete threat posed by drones has become a global reality. Military forces as well as law enforcement agencies — including federal and state police units — are increasingly confronted with this persistent threat. According to reports from various operational deployments, German Bundeswehr camps in Afghanistan and Mali, for example, were almost daily overflown by Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS).
These flights are primarily assumed to serve reconnaissance purposes. However, it cannot be ruled out that Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) may also carry payloads capable of conducting targeted attacks.
With the increasing proliferation of sUAS, Counter-sUAS (C-sUAS) capabilities and technologies are becoming increasingly important. This applies not only to overseas military operations, but also to the protection of domestic critical infrastructure and sensitive facilities.
Challenges of modern drone threats
The challenges posed by modern sUAS systems are diverse. Most drones are commercially available civilian products that can be easily obtained worldwide at low cost. Due to their small size and frequent use of plastic materials, they possess only a minimal signature, making them difficult to detect and track.
In addition, these systems combine high speeds with considerable agility as well as advanced flight control and navigation systems. Commercially available yet highly capable platforms offer extended flight times and high-definition camera technology — while remaining easily accessible to virtually anyone.
In particular, the growing proliferation of FPV and fiber-optic controlled drones presents military forces and security agencies worldwide with new operational challenges.
SMARTSHOOTER fire control systems
To address these new and rapidly evolving threats, SMARTSHOOTER specializes in the development of advanced fire control systems for small arms.
These systems significantly increase weapon accuracy and hit probability against static and moving targets on the ground and in the air — both day and night.
SMASH X4
The SMASH X4 combines a 4x magnified optical sight with SMARTSHOOTER’s advanced fire control capabilities, providing the operator with enhanced target detection and identification capabilities at extended ranges.
The system also features an etched reticle, enabling continued operation even without battery power. An optional integrated Laser Range Finder (LRF) allows precise distance measurement and supports the system’s ballistic calculations for even greater accuracy.
In addition, the SMASH X4 integrates proven Lock-Track-Hit capabilities, enabling the engagement of static and dynamic targets even under complex firing conditions and demanding tactical scenarios.
Operational Insight
Publicly documented combat experiences from Lebanon demonstrate the successful deployment of SMASH fire control systems against FPV drones under real operational conditions. The analyzed engagements particularly highlight the growing importance of kinetic C-UAS capabilities against modern threats such as highly agile and fiber-optic controlled FPV drones.

The Legend Redefined
The product name alone inevitably creates the highest expectations regarding the performance and quality of the VECTOR X. That is why it is far more than just a laser rangefinding binocular. Unmatched performance, outstanding user-friendliness, and unique features specifically developed for the most demanding long-range shooters and hunters define the VECTOR X.
Range Performance
A laser rangefinding binocular is only suitable for demanding long-range shooters if it can reliably deliver precise measurements on challenging, distant targets. Equipped with a 905 nm Class 1 laser and an exceptionally tight laser beam divergence of just 1.5 × 0.1 MRAD (1.8 × 0.1 MRAD for the 8×42 model), the VECTOR X is capable of measuring targets at distances of up to 4,000 meters — setting new standards in the civilian market segment.
Optical System
With its bright, color-neutral image, high contrast, and wide field of view, the VECTOR X is the ideal rangefinding binocular for situations where every detail matters. Hunters in particular will appreciate the outstanding optical performance, allowing precise target identification even under difficult lighting conditions.
Two MRAD-based reticles are available for the VECTOR X. The choice of reticle primarily depends on whether the device will also be used with the optionally available Range Enhancers. These unique add-on lenses screw directly into the objective lenses of the VECTOR X and increase magnification by 40%.
The MSR-DMR reticle is calibrated for both magnification levels and is therefore recommended for users intending to operate the VECTOR X with Range Enhancers.
Unmatched Ease of Use
The VECTOR X truly distinguishes itself through its exceptional user-friendliness. Intuitive operation via a directional control pad (D-Pad) combined with the revolutionary Active Matrix OLED display ensures maximum ease of use.
Whether for beginners or experienced operators, the operating logic of the VECTOR X becomes immediately intuitive upon first use. Even in time-critical situations, users can quickly access the full functionality of the system.
Rugged and Reliable
As a leading manufacturer of high-performance electro-optical systems for military applications, VECTRONIX SHOOTING SOLUTIONS applies the same standards of reliability, durability, and build quality to its civilian products.
The rugged yet lightweight magnesium housing combined with premium rubber armoring protects the IP67-certified VECTOR X against impacts while ensuring a secure, non-slip grip. The focusing wheel, diopter adjustment, and rotating eyecup adjustment mechanisms are all made from aluminum, ensuring reliable performance even under the harshest operational conditions.
Applied Ballistics Elite Included as Standard
The VECTOR X comes standard with Applied Ballistics Elite. With more than 800 selectable projectiles, Applied Ballistics Elite has rapidly become the preferred ballistic solver among many Western military units.
Immediately after a range measurement, the VECTOR X displays complete ballistic corrections on its bright Active Matrix OLED display. Applied Ballistics Elite calculates elevation correction as well as two wind correction values. These complete ballistic solutions are displayed simultaneously in a clear and organized format on a single screen, significantly reducing engagement time for the shooter.
In addition, seamless integration with third-party devices and applications allows the VECTOR X to connect via Bluetooth to Kestrel weather meters, Calypso wind meters, Garmin ballistic watches, and mobile ballistic apps.
Attention to Detail
Often, it is the carefully engineered details that elevate an outstanding product even further. The VECTOR X includes numerous intelligent design solutions specifically tailored to the needs of demanding long-range shooters:
• The M46 × 0.75 front objective thread allows installation of optional Range Enhancers, increasing magnification by 40%. The same thread can also be used for mounting honeycomb anti-reflection filters commonly used by sniper teams. High-quality Tenebraex honeycomb filters are available separately.
• The VECTOR X is the first rangefinding binocular capable of operating with rechargeable 18650 batteries. A corresponding extended battery compartment cap is included as standard.
• The included objective lens covers are designed for rapid installation and operation. They rotate a full 360° and effectively protect the lenses against scratches.
• The VECTOR X is supplied with a mounting plate featuring a universal ¼” thread for easy tripod attachment. Dedicated mounting plates from Area 419 and Really Right Stuff (RRS) are also available as optional accessories.
Warranty
The VECTOR X includes a 3-year warranty on electronics and a 10-year warranty on optics and mechanics from the date of purchase (excluding improper use).
