AN/PVS-27 Magnum
Universal Night Sight™ (MUNS™)
shown installed on the
Barrett .50 Caliber
Sniper Rifle. |
The
AN/PVS-27 Magnum Universal
Night Sight™ (MUNS™)
is a high-resolution Clip-on
Night Vision Device (CNVD) that
mounts on any MIL-STD-1913 rail
interface forward of an existing
scope, adding night vision
capabilities to daytime target
acquisition platforms. The
Magnum Universal Night Sight™ (MUNS™)
utilizes a full MIL-SPEC Gen 3 (autogated
pinnacle) image intensifier
tube, an extremely fast f/1.0
catadioptric lens for a brighter
and sharper image in starlight,
and patented permanent boresight
alignment technology. The MUNS™
gathers twice as much light as
the AN/PVS-22 Universal Night
Sight™ (UNS™) and can be used
against targets at 1.5 times the
range of the AN/PVS-22. The unit
is installed, operated, and
removed without tools and
without affecting boresight
(permanent boresight alignment).
The unit can be mounted on a
spotting scope for long range
reconnaissance, hand-held as a
Night Observation Device (NOD),
or used in other night-time
operations requiring night
vision capabilities. Optimized
for medium- & long-range sniper
weapons including the XM107,
MK11, .338 Lapua, .308 M24,
Chandler & 300 Win Mag.
