NVG generation 3/4 suppliers
 
I look for suppliers selling generation 3 or 4 NVGs for airborne law enforcement. Does anybody out there know who sells? I only found ITT Industries so far. Responses appreciated!!!:ok:

Salesman B.S or not, but there is nice goggle available from Europe! Itīs the Helimun Mk6 NVG goggle fitted with the XR5 tubes. FOV 40 or 60 degrees available. OIP Sensor Systems in Belgium.

Cheers,

As someone who's trialled a lot of NVGs I would say there is little to choose between the Photonis XL5 and ITT Pinnacle tubes. Both are good for "halo" effect around light sources and both are light with good focal range /FoV. Be aware though, the Tube is only part of the system. The mount (weight/IPD adjustment/CoG/vibration damping/ease of fit etc) and battery pack (bespoke/AA etc) are almost as important as the tube.

You can have the best tube in the world, but on a rubbish mount they will be worse than useless.

The Mk 6 mounting is interchangable with the ANVIS mounting. The Mk 6 system icnluding battery pack is 20 gramms heavier than the F4949, including an improved connector for the goggle/battery pack.
