RPO NVD-Next Lightweight Eyepiece Assembly

IN STOCK

Rochester Precision Optics' latest lens offering and candidate for the US Army Night Vision Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD) NVD-Next program. The 4th generation RPO NVD-Next eyepiece lens is the largest leap forward in standard night vision optics in recent memory.

Offers enhanced performance over existing Milspec lens offerings: drops eyepiece lens weight from 74g to 43g while enlarging the eyebox, increasing light transmission, and reducing optical distortion.

The NVD-Next lens is best paired with an RPO 3.0 objective as recommended by RPO, but can also be used with standard US Milspec objectives. 

The RPO NVD-Next Lens Set offers weight savings over traditional PVS-14 optics as follows:

• Objective Lens: 38g (RPO) vs 53g (Carson US Milspec) - 28% weight reduction
• Eyepiece Lens: 43g (RPO) vs 74g (Carson US Milspec) - 42% weight reduction

On a binocular system, this translates to a substantial ~92g weight reduction while maintaining a high-quality image.

Examples: Nighthawk drops from 605g to 513g; Katana Gen3 drops from 511g to a staggering 419g (for context: standard US Milspec PVS-14 with J-arm weighs over 330g)
