The Squad Binocular Night Vision Goggle is lightweight, provides critical advantages on the modern battlefield<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

FORT WORTH, TEXAS \u2013 DEC. 7, 2023 \u2013 Elbit America received a five-year Indefinite Delivery\/Indefinite Quantity (ID\/IQ) contract from the United States Marine Corps (USMC) to continue producing the Squad Binocular Night Vision Goggle (SBNVG). The competitive contract is worth up to $500 million, with an initial delivery order for nearly $127 million. The goggles will be produced in Roanoke, Virginia. The company has delivered more than 15,000 SBNVG systems to the USMC since 2019.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The SBNVG has proven to be a game-changer in modern warfare, as it is lightweight without compromising capability. The goggles currently provide image intensification, with an enhanced clip-on thermal imager. The set-up allows Marines to operate at night, or in dark buildings and tunnels where one\u2019s situational awareness is challenged.<\/p>\n

The SBNVG is a helmet-mounted system that provides Marines with increased depth perception, enhanced clarity through high-performance white phosphor image intensifier tubes, a thermal-imaging capability, and more. These features, along with extra-long run times, provide Marines an added edge on the battlefield.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cNo matter the light conditions or environment, Marines are tapped for challenging missions. Equipped with Elbit America\u2019s Squad Binocular Night Vision Goggles, Marines can quickly understand their surroundings and act,\u201d said Erik Fox, Vice President of Warfighter Systems at Elbit America.<\/p>\n

\u201cElbit America is proud of our long history supplying Marines with night vision and electro-optic innovations,\u201d said Raanan Horowitz, the company\u2019s president and CEO. \u201cWe continue to refine our portfolio, offering solutions that enable the networked Warfighter of the future with sophisticated decision aids and display systems that work in all operational environments.\u201d<\/p>\n
