    The W1000 uncooled thermal weapon sight enhances mission performance by helping to spot personnel and equipment at greater ranges, adding a critical margin to survivability and lethality. The W1000 gives the warfighter the ability to shoot equally well both day and night, and is combat proven by U.S. and allied armed forces. The W1000 uses long-wave uncooled infrared technology to sense differences in heat emitted by objects in its field of view. It separates people and other objects from cluttered backgrounds and foliage, in either full daylight or the darkest night - even when there is absolutely no light.

    Yeah a nice unit and way off what they cost if you can find one. Would rather sell locally before I have to go to ebay as they sell there pretty good. Makes a heck of a spotter, weapons sight or to keep a spare unit around.
