Description
The EOTech BNVD 1531 is a compact, lightweight, Gen III dual-tube goggle with improved white phosphor tube technology for greater target detection and recognition. Low-light and nighttime maneuvers appear more natural in black and white, with added contrast detail in shapes and shadows providing the operator more visual information for assessment and acquisition. White phosphor offers various shades of intensity between black and white (over black and green), resulting in better contrast and depth perception.
Adjustable Eyepiece Diopter: adjustable from +2.0 to -2.5
It has an ergonomic low-profile design and offers superior situational awareness compared to a single tube goggle. Working directly with input from SOF Operators, the BNVD was designed to increase system resolution, significantly reduce head borne-weight, improve system center of gravity, provide additional operational utility, and improve overall situational awareness as compared to currently fielded dual-tube goggles. The white phosphor BNVD is a follow-on to the legacy, battle-proven AN/PVS-15 and AN/PVS-31 standard green phosphor night vision goggles. High performance white phosphor image with enhanced degree of detail in overall contrast and range of shades Provides the operator more visual information for accurate assessment and acquisition
