#L3Harris

In 2005, L3Harris purchased optics maker and holography innovation company EOTech. For the last fifteen years, EOTech has existed as only a small portion of this defense industry Goliath’s larger operations which also include products like military drones, tactical radios, surveillance and reconnaissance technologies, night vision devices, and much more.

Shooting with night vision is a lot of fun. One piece of equipment that makes shooting under NODs easy is a good laser. While there is a whole wide range of lasers to choose from, we will focus on three of the most popular lasers that are available for civilian use. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly refer to three civilian lasers. Let’s take a look at what they are.

The German Bundeswehr (Army) has been training in the northern parts of Norway, near the Arctic Circle.

If you don’t know the distance to your target it will make it more difficult – if not impossible in some cases – to get your ballistics right, and hit where you want. Of course, you don’t always have to “hit” something. It can be good to know the distance to something without the need to destroy it sometimes.

American Holoptics, an affiliate of  Koucar Management, have bought EOTech from L3Harris. The purchase price is undisclosed. At the end of 2005 L3Harris acquired EOTech, a story that now comes to an end.

For this week’s Friday Night Lights we will take a look at some interesting night vision and thermal products from various manufacturers. There are some thermal fusion weapon sights along with articulating fusion night vision goggles from a number of manufacturers. Lets dive into this Friday Night Lights Shot Show 2020 NVG Round Up.

The German company IEA Mil-Optics GmbH have received another order from German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr).
