@zxSkeletorxz btw can't remember if I asked but how did my photonis tube hold up compared to gen 3 tubes in similar weather to what we went out in? I'm trying to get a feel for how gimped gen 2+ is in no starlight conditions

Personal wearable digital NVG's are a pretty much private market thing
duh
especially in terms of 'actually available to non mil'
@CDRCC nah, the IVAS program is a fixed billion dollar program that uses digital nvgs
after using my friends anvis 9 tube its pretty gimped
I'm going to crip walk on your poor ass
the military has better options available right now moron

his l3 anvis tube has like zero noise in pure darkness
Digital NODs ontop of a HUD and thermals
yeh. Plate wasn't even visible to me without using the illuminator
Literally what the army is going for
We've been saying IVAS for the whole conversation
Are you fucking retarded?
It's basically a program for a google glass type headset for HUD/augmented reality, with integrated day/night optics @CDRCC
First article I saw on it only mentioned digital thermal? Is NVG in as well, just not mentioned?
damn, is the l3 anvis tube really that powerful?
Currently it's just a big VR headset for training, and yes
we're on stp 1
I mean, that's a fair point I guess. The price point for a headset with those kinds of capabilities would be 20k+ though, and absolutely not available for civ market for next 10-20 years
me on the left
how my nods finna be lookin in 2025
its pretty powerful yeah.
Yeah, that's my point, is that digital development is already at a fixed rate due to mil spending and demand
Yeah and any company worth anything won't waste their time with the civilian market until the military is good to go, which will take 10-20 years
So people buying 100k worth of auroras means nothing to the billions that they're getting from the army
Well, the Aurora isn't looking for that kind of market - it's one of the first "viable" DNVG's oriented to the civ market IMO
Its not viable at all
and 100K is a rather low estimate IMO, that's 200 units only
