sirhc Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 It’s a thermal imaging sight. http://www.eliteukforces.info/uksf-gear/thermal-imagers/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarland Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 https://www.zdnet.com/pictures/photos-mod-tracks-with-deadly-accuracy/3/ Photo of said sight here - not the best quality image Was replaced about 10 years ago by the sight shown in shirc's link. Given the size of the thing surprised it was ever used in the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the rear turret bin, sometimes referred to as the OTIS bin. The original rear bin was the smaller square shape bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronsandt Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 Cool. But I suppose you can’t buy those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarland Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Until I saw shirc's post I'd never even heard of OTIS You occasionaly see the 1980's Individual Weapon Sight(IWS) image intensifiers come up for sale online but I have never seen an OTIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
