IDF Utilizes Breakthrough "Dagger" Rifle Technology COMBATING Hamas in Gaza

the IDF has invented a new weapon site called  the dagger and it will change the face of the   battlefield if this sounds like science fiction  well it's for real the dagger is basically a   smart site a component that attaches to a rifle  and improves aim and Target acquisition this   will change the face of the battlefield but how  let me explain I'm mati Shani stick around and   learn more about this new technology with me come  with me into the mind of an IDF Soldier fighting   in the heart of the Gaza Strip densely populated  neighborhoods danger looking around every corner   attack drones might attack from the sky and  terrorists could assault the IDF combat teams   at any time these are just some of the challenges  a soldier faces in the field to neutralize threats   you have to shoot of course but the target  does not stop moving so how do you deal with   a moving Target how do you improve the chances  of hitting your target while the IDF has found a   technological solution this site is called aigion  in Hebrew it's not a normal Optical accessory   like a laser or an iron sight it's actually a fire  control system it allows the fighter to accurately   hit moving Targets in simpler terms unlike a  normal site which gives the fighter a Target   According to which he can place his Barrel  the dagger gives the fighter the ability to search mode where every potential Target in  the range of sight of the dagger is marked   with a rectangle as soon as the fighter locks  on a Target he leaves PTT mode and the dagger   locks onto the selected Target circling its  Center of mass in a circle all the fighter   has left to do is pull the trigger if the  barrel is not aimed exactly at the Target   the trigger will not depress as if the weapon  was malfunctioning but if the barrel is aimed   straight at the Target and the dagger determines  the to be accurate a bullet will exit the Barrel   in the exact precise time and the round will be  shot basically the system allows the fighter to   prepare the weapon for firing so that the bullet  will be released only and only when the chances   of hitting are high some people are of course  concerned about locking the weapon but there   is a simple solution moving the weapon slightly  will disable the dagger and allow the fighter to   shoot freely this whole idea started years ago  and back in 2018 when the IDF was tasked with   developing systems for protecting citizens from  attacks like Kites and explosive balloons it was   then that the first dagger site came into use  it was heavy and impractical but achieved its   purpose still the advanced technology required  a lighter and more operational solution today   the dagger weighs only 700 g which is no more  than any other special site in in relation to   the results it provides four times more likely to  hit a Target on the first bullet the extra weight   seems marginal thousands of them have already  been used by the fighters maneuvering in the   strip and one of its key operational successes was  in golani's 51st Battalion which was attacked by a   number of missile drones and with the help of the  dagger managed to neutralize seven of them within   seconds in this war Advanced Technologies are  being used in all combat arenas on the ground   below ground in the tunnels and in the air  but the current war is unusual not only in   its length but its technological advancements and  also being the first digital War Israel's Advanced   Technologies will be unveiled strategically  as the conflict unfolds and I will be there   together with you to review them all the state  of Israel is one of the most productive hot bits   for Innovative companies Tel Aviv has the world's  highest number of startups per capita the world's   highest investment in research and development  and is home to approximately 270 multinational   corporations including Google Apple Facebook  and Microsoft which have established over 350   R&D centers it is also home to hundreds of  venture capital funds and steadily attracts   increasing investment that reaches a peak of  $27 billion in 2021 at the top of the global   High Tech bubble this is just the beginning of  this technology in the not too distant future   the night vision capabilities of the system will  also be significantly improved there will even   be a possibility of identifying our forces in  order to prevent friendly fire until now sites   were mostly a mechanical tool and now they have  become smart technological devices kind of like   horses and cars with a car you can do things  that you just can't do with horses no matter   how good they are [Music] hello this is mati here  in Jerusalem with TBN Israel this is y Pinto from   TBN Israel here in Jerusalem TBN Israel is keeping  viewers informed with Israel focused news culture   and what God is doing in this land support TBN  Israel today online at tbn.org Israel thank you
