![]() ![]() They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt. Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me. And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me. Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me. When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard. Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this. Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not. Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people Ephraim is a cake not turned. They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me. For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire. In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine he stretched out his hand with scorners. They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneeded the dough, until it be leavened. They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies. And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about they are before my face. When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without. Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people. Some bought a small quantity of the Dagger for testing with the intent of purchasing in bulk in the future.Bible, King James Version Bible, King James Version ![]() In 2010, NATO said it intended to improve a soldier’s ability to fire while in motion, and Western militaries that examined the gun sight were impressed by its capabilities. But then they were given rifles with the Dagger gun sight and all of them, including the inexperienced recruits, hit their targets with an accuracy rate of above 70%. The instructors hit the target and the recruits missed. We had two groups - shooting instructors and new recruits. "We staged a challenging test to hit the target with the first bullet, while in motion. Ultimately a different, revolutionary product was made," says the major. "A few years ago two guys came to me with an idea. In the future it will be a framework for improvements such as conveying data from the gun sight to troops in the rear.” ![]() “Recent developments in image processing and the cheapening of technology prices allows us to purchase thousands of gun sights. “This is the first time that a fighter has been outfitted with a computer that works for him without him having to do much to operate it,” says Maj. The Dagger was developed as part of an extensive pilot program with the IDF's Golani, Givati and Paratrooper combat brigades. ![]() The Dagger gun sight (Photo: Israeli Ministry of Defense) The Defense Ministry has ordered a first batch of 2,000 of the gunsights. They were produced by the IDF's Administration for the Development of Weapons and Technological Infrastructure (known by its Hebrew acronym Maf'at) and the Smart-Shooter company of Kibbutz Yagur. The sights, which cost of tens of millions of shekels, follow the target and, with the aid of an algorithm and an advanced image processing system, “know” the right moment to pull the trigger. It then processes all the information in order to select the optimum moment to shoot. One of the most advanced gun sights in the world, the Dagger has an electro-optic system and a processor that calculates the distance of a target and its movement, the movement of the shooter and the ballistics of the ammunition and the rifle used. It allows soldiers to hit a target on the first shot, regardless of their skill as a marksman, and reduces the chances of innocent civilians being hit. The new product, named Dagger, was developed to help IDF troops improve their marksmanship, and gives them the ability to hit moving targets precisely.
