New partnership addresses mission-critical demand for counter-drone technology amid escalating global conflicts

MIAMI, Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — HevenDrones (Heven), the market leader in hydrogen-powered drones, announced today a partnership with SMARTSHOOTER, a global innovator in fire control systems that significantly increase hit probability against static and moving ground and aerial targets.

The collaboration integrates SMARTSHOOTER’s SMASH Dragon platform with Heven’s H100 and Urban drone platforms, enabling precision targeting and engagement of both ground and aerial threats.

Bentzion Levinson, CEO of Heven, said :

As drone conflicts escalate, we know that counter-drone technology will prove critical to the evolving needs of the armed forces,

“By integrating our drones with SMARTSHOOTER’s fire control systems, we aim to address customer demand for the future needs of remotely-controlled warfare.”

SMASH Dragon is an advanced robotic weapon payload that can be mounted on various drones and unmanned aerial platforms. Leveraging SMARTSHOOTER’s SMASH proprietary fire control and target acquisition algorithms, along with ballistic-calculated shot release, the system directs the weapon and accurately times the shot to achieve a precise hit. The system is uniquely designed to lock, track, and engage unknown targets in unpredictable environments, whether static or dynamic, day or night, unaffected by target movements or human errors such as fatigue and stress.

Staying at the forefront of military technology innovation, SMASH’s proven track record includes recent successful deployments and significant contracts to supply the SMASH 3000 system to NATO Countries for counter-drone operations and equipping the British Army with SMASH systems for counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) capabilities.
