Procurement Builds on Earlier Experience

The Spanish Army concluded a contract with NVLS (Night Vision Lasers Spain) at the end of last year for 450 sets of night vision binoculars using Photonis 4G image intensifier tubes. Delivery was effected prior to year-end.

The service is an existing user of Photonis systems, having procured AN/PVS14 type monoculars under a multi-year contract signed in 2019. Light weight, tube longevity, the ability to see further in ever lower levels of light and an ultra-fast auto-gating function to prevent ‘whiteout’ are frequently cited as important selection criteria by customers, according to the company. “We are confident that more European soldiers will be able to carry out their night missions with the best equipment available on the market,” commented Photonis CEO, Jérôme Cerisier.
