Israeli armed forces will equip soldiers with a new Shaked Fighting device with an Android-enabled smartphone. The device is equipped with a wrist strap and has a digital compass, a card, a camera, the option of recognizing allies on the battlefield and a means of communication with them. In this case, the device interface does not differentiate it from other smartphones. The management has already reported on the first Shaked Fighting test.
The Israeli army technology and logistics department said that Shaked Fighting would also be available in a special command line with communication devices, a portable external battery, and an additional phone, protected from water and beatings.
The tactical kit of Shaked Fighting has already been tested in the combat unit. The device received positive feedback, so by 2019 the Israeli army will begin mass production of new items.
