- Design Features.
The VVS-2(V) night viewing system is a second-generation, passive (non-visible-light-emitting) light amplification device. The VVS-2(V) allows a vehicle to be driven under night conditions without illumination. The area viewed is presented in varying shades of green, from near white to near black, with lighter reflections making up the brighter relief.
- The system includes an objective lens assembly, an entrance window housing assembly, a main housing assembly composed of an electronic power control and electric power adapter, a low-level image intensifier, a 4-inch cathode ray tube (CRT), an eyepiece assembly, and a mounting device. The unit is light enough to be installed from within the vehicle, and can be manually rotated in azimuth from between 30° to 45°, depending on the vehicle’s configuration. The VVS-2(V) is a direct replacement of the US Army M19 and M24 active IR viewing devices.
- Operational Characteristics.
The system amplifies all available ambient light by as much as 50,000 times. The picture is relayed through circuitry to a CRT tube/ screen, providing the viewer (the driver in this case) with a detailed, light-intensified image. An eyepiece is available as an alternative viewing option. Generation II image intensifier tubes feature automatic gain control and bright source protection. An ambient light detector acts as a protective circuit to cut electrical power to the image tube if the system is inadvertently turned on in daylight.
