The Ultralight Articulating Night Vision Binocular (UANVB “Katana”) remains the lightest binocular on the market, with onboard power, weighing in less than 15 oz fully built. The articulating design allows for individual pod shut off, enabling the user to use one or both eyes while utilizing weapon mounted, non-passive aiming systems. End users will be able to mount and dismount vehicles easier with the low profile of the UANVB when stowed. The UANVB features the original Friction Lock Interpupillary Adjustment feature so you can set it and forget it with no additional tools.This unit may be lightweight but does not compromise strength as it exceeds MIL-STD-810G and had been drop tested beyond NATO or TOP standards (6 feet to concrete in 6 different orientations on a single device).
Compatible with PVS-14 spec optics and 18MM MX-10160 tubes. MX-11769 will function but EGAC pigtail will need to be removed.
