HELIENight vision goggle for airborne operations
ovErvIEw
thanks to a f/0.95 aperture objective lens, helie binoculars for airborne operations offers outstanding performances at lowest light levels.
tHE bEst optIcaL pErformaNcEs
helie collects 60% more light flow than classical binoculars equipped with f/1.2 aperture lenses reducing noise effect for the pilots. the innovative optical design and the use of aspherical lenses allow better optical performance in similar size and weight compared to other goggles.
statE of tHE art mEcHaNIcaL dEsIgN
the important eye relief of the goggles allows an excellent peripheral vision. helie’s state of the art mechanical design offers a perfect stability for an improved comfort.
compLIaNt wItH aNy aNvIs HELmEt
helie is compliant with any flight helmet. the binocular mount, compliant with anvis standard, enables mounting, dismounting, flipping up and ejection of goggles under shocks.
LoNg opEratIoNaL usE
helie power supply is ensured by 4 standard aa batteries for over 24 hours of operational use.
