EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
1.6 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The CNVD-T is a battery operated, handheld or weapon-
mounted, thermal imaging device. It allows for observation,
target identification, and target acquisition during the day or
in adverse conditions such as light rain, light snow, dry
smoke, and low light to total darkness. The unit will not
allow the user to see through glass, water, or heavy rain /
snow.
The CNVD-T detects and displays available thermal
signatures to provide rapid cueing to the operator of potential
targets or danger. The sight is passive and does not emit
visible or infrared light (except from the eyepiece) that can
be detected by the enemy.
The CNVD-T can be mounted to weapons equipped with a
MIL-STD-1913 rail. It may also be used in conjunction with
other optical and red dot sights.
It is a ruggedized system designed for operation in battlefield
environments.
