DescriptionModel 552 is in use by military forces and government agencies like the DEA, ATF and FBI. It's night vision-compatible.
Are you a sportsman interested in hunting with night vision? Give the 552 another look. The 552 is EOTech's most affordable night vision-compatible sight and it partners with most night vision-devices. The 552 is designed to increase your speed to target even after the sun goes down.
**Please Note: The XR308 reticle was designed specifically for the military M240 machine gun. It should be used with .308 cal with 150 gr M59 FMJ at roughly 2,800 fps with a 24.8” barrel.
The Model 552 HOLOgraphic
Weapon Sight (HWS)
is fully compatible with all generation levels of
Night Vision intensifier tubes. A special
Night Vision (NV) setting allows the operator to immediately drop
the brightness intensity of the holographic reticle to eliminate any
"halo" effect while viewing through an image intensifier tube. The Model 552
can be positioned in tandem behind Night Vision
intensifiers without any "bloom" of the target area. Now, operators can
combine the proven Night Vision
technological advantage with a superior close quarters weapon optic to
achieve greatly enhanced weapon aiming - in complete darkness.
Unlike active IR laser pointer systems, the HWS is a passive system and emits no muzzle-side signature. While in the NV mode, the HWS is not detectable by enemy night vision surveillance systems, providing operators with a stealth means for effective nighttime weapon aiming. All optical surfaces are flat and treated with anti-reflective coatings eliminating additional muzzle side signature due to reflective glare. No need for costly glare elimination filters that reduce the effective light transmission and further dim the target area. The projected reticle pattern is only visible to the operator.
The Model 552's unique switch allows the operator to instantly drop the holographic reticle brightness to the NV mode of operation. The operator has the ability to toggle back and forth between the NV mode and the normal day/night operation within fractions of a second. The Model 552 has 10 distinct Night Vision settings to provide maximum flexibility to the operator. Typically 3 to 4 brightness settings are not enough to support a host of constantly changing conditions including manufacturing variances in the sensitivities of the image intensifier tubes, varying ambient environments, and varying light gathering sensitivities of the human eye across users. The Model 552 still maintains the 20 normal brightness settings for normal day/night operations.
