POTD: SAF Commando

    Joshua To took these photos during The Singapore Open House just last weekend. This SAF officer demonstrated parachuting and landing among the Red Lions. SG Army’s version of the Golden Knights.

    The geared up SAF has an H&K MP7 with suppressor across his chest. I did not know the SG Army has MP7s. Considering the SAR21 that is issued to their soldiers, the MP7 seems out of place.

     

    On his helmet is a pair of Thales Lucie Bioculars. They are rather flat compared to other NVGs.

    The interesting feature is the objective lens. Traditional Biocular (not binocular) NODs, have an objective lens in the middle. But these have an offset lens. So you can use your weapon sights in conjunction with the Lucies.
