RNVG

The RNVG is regarded as the most rugged housing on the market; as is reflected in its name, Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle. The housing is made of machined 7075 aluminum which greatly increases its strength over nearly all other housings on the market. Despite its 7075 aluminum construction the RNVG remains fairly lightweight. The RNVG is a fixed bridge system. This means the optical pods do not articulate, but rather adjust transversely on the bridge. The lack of articulation aids in the RNVG’s ruggedness as with fewer moving parts comes less points of failure. If you prioritize absolute durability and ruggedness above all else, the RNVG is likely the choice for you. 

We build our devices using our suite of in house state of the art equipment, including the Hoffman Engineering ANV-126A Test Set and HVS Vision System. The same equipment tube manufacturers such as Elbit Systems of America and L3Harris Technologies use. This allows us to remove any subjectivity in assembly and maintain the absolute highest degree of precision possible. What this equates to is a device built to an exceeding degree of quality with exacting standards.
