Israeli Tech Turns Soldiers Into Drone Interceptors Against Hezbollah’s Fiber-Optic Threat

Hezbollah’s fiber‑optic drones, which are hard to jam, are pushing Israel to adapt. Israeli company Smart Shooter uses optic‑based fire-control systems that stabilize aim and track fast-moving targets, enabling soldiers to perform kinetic interceptions of drones. The software-driven approach can be updated in the field to counter evolving threats, turning ordinary troops into rapid, precise drone interceptors without extra platforms.
