I mean honestly, buying that gutter trash clearance priced sightmark ghosthunter and fucking around with it did help me decide if I wanted nightvision badly enough to drop $$
We won't because we'll just make a better one when we feel like it
>which will be thoroughly elitist and drive away anyone who reads it, not that that isn't hilarious
@CDRCC your whole point is that demand of cheaper digital night vision will drop prices but digital night vision atm is irrelevant to actual use so it will not drop the demand of analog image intesifiers.
Maybe in 10 years when digital performance is relevant but currently, saving up is the smarter choice which you should drive people do instead of coddling them
would contribute and call people poorfags due to the amount of stupid questions i get tbh
>spending money on helmet bad
broke boi
You hate us because we bring about the truth
>gen3 bad
which is
1. Fuck poor people
and
2. Fuck Aurora
>spending money on special threat bad
this is the most elaborate poorfagging I have ever seen
pp
So here's my idea
1. Aurora can lead people into buying real NVG, which will expand that market
the guide would basically recommend saving 1000 bucks and where to hunt for a deal on some photonis gen 2+ or a cheap blemmed gen 3
2. Success of aurora means further advances in digital NVG, which will also be pretty neat
the gateway drug to NODs is letting someone wear your pvs14s
and calling them a faggot for trying to go with anything less
I agree borther
The success of the aurora won't advance digital NVGs
Military contracts and R&D research is doing that
Digital NVG has existed for a long time. its still not good
>who the fuck in the military is buying digital NVG
The army
nobody who buys an 800 dollar something is going to go out running to buy a 2000 dollar something when they clearly do not care that there are well documented flaws with their 800 dollar toy
Have you seen helicopter optics?
they're buying thermals, or gen3 NVG
If a poorfag cant save up $2-3k for some gen 3 pvs14's then they dont deserve to be saved from their own retardation
or heard of IVAS?
those are thermals lul
Apache optics are FLIR
bruh the military is going to push digital nvg way more than civvies
@CDRCC The research and development of digital nvgs has already been fixed through an essentially endless budget from the Army, I doubt 1000+ sales on things they have to actually sell is meaningful compared to the billions the army is dropping on prototypes
They still have digital NODs for their camera for near dusk time
its vastly more useful to them to be able to see in color in the dark you fucking retard
yeah digital nightvision for aircraft will be big I think
Civilian adoption of 6.8 GPMGs will force the hand of the <@&559943292029239296> to adopt an m4 replacement
