This has been proven by TopGun fighter pilots throughout the world. The HOLOgraphic Weapon Sight (HWS) is the 1st electro-optic sighting system to apply holographic technology to small and medium sized weapon platforms. When used in Close Quarter Battle (CQB) environments, this revolutionary weapon optic delivers amazing speed and accuracy gains, un-compromising use of peripheral vision, leaves no muzzle side operator signature and is packaged in a compact, durable unit. Now deployed with elite Special Forces and SWAT teams the world over, the HWS delivers vastly improved shooting performance for all levels of operators. The Magic of Holography In holography, all the information required to reconstruct the reticle image is recorded everywhere in the Heads-Up Display window. If the window is obstructed by mud, snow, rain, etc., the HWS remains fully operational, with point of aim/impact being maintained. Even in such extreme cases where the front window is shattered, the HWS is fully functional and the zero is maintained! As long as the operator can see through any portion of the window, the entire reticle pattern is visible on target. The operator can still engage with confidence! Sealed and nitrogen filled optical cavity ensuring waterproof (submersible) and fogproof operation Flat optics and anti-reflective coatings to eliminate muzzle Still accurate Still accurate Still accurate side reflective glare signature covered in mud covered in snow broken window broken by incoming Real Life Story training round A case in point is a recent occurrence with a US Federal law enforcement agency. An operator took an in-coming training round (orange paint) during a firefight engagement in a shoot house. The training round smashed the HWS’s front window upon impact. The operator had no idea he was hit because he saw the holographic reticle clearly and continued through his course of fire. He engaged all targets perfectly without any change to point of impact. Needless to say, all the operators training that day were in awe. 4 State-of-the-art composite The HOLOgraphic Advantage material enclosing the The holographic patterns have been designed to be instantly visible in any lighting optical cavity condition, to be instinctive to center regardless of the shooting angle, and to stay in view when sweeping an engagement zone. Reticles are designed as large, see through, patterns that achieve lightning quick reticle to target acquisition speed without covering up or obscuring the aiming point. The standard reticle is a 65 MOA ring with alignment ticks and a 1 MOA aiming dot. The large, open ring is the key to the lightning quick eye recognition and unmatched target acquisition speed. Alternately, the 1 MOA can be used for precision aiming at distances as far as 500 yards where it only covers 5” of the target scene. The reticle demonstrates its versatility for a host of close quarter and long range engagement scenarios … there is no compromise between speed and precision accuracy. Electronics fully encapsulated in shock absorbing resin compound Extreme Durability - Built To Take It The HWS has been designed and tested to provide consistent, reliable performance, even in the most hostile operating environments. The HWS is waterproof (sub- mersible), fogproof, shockproof, and withstands extreme temperature variations. The HWS meets military drop test requirements with no functional degradation to the weapon optic and holding zero to within 2 MOA! The HWS can take the bang- ing, beating, and punishing treatment commonly inflicted in battlefield environments and remain fully operational and hold zero. Every HWS is extensively tested in a punishing recoil simulator generating 2,000 G’s of acceleration in less than 1.0 milliseconds, as well as various environmental chambers. The Heads Up Display is constructed with a 3 layer, shatterproof laminate glass that Hardened and corrosive is 3/16" thick for added durability. Additional protection of the Heads Up Display is resistant componentry provided with a “roll bar” ruggedized hood. flective muzzle gnature Heads Up, Full View Multiple threats are a given in tactical situations. The retention of peripheral vision is critical for threat ID and situational awareness. Engagement with 2 eyes open is a must. The HWS employs a true Heads-Up Display that eliminates blind spots, constricted vision, or the tunnel vision associated with tubed sights. All user controls are flush to the HWS’s streamlined housing with no protruding knobs, battery compartments Full field of view using or mounting rings that block the shooters vision of the target area. True, 2 eyes 2 eyes open to track open shooting is realized. Instant threat identification is achieved by maximizing the multiple targets operator’s peripheral vision and ultimately gaining greater control of the engage- ment zone. The end result - operators achieve maximum situational awareness. 5 Mission Our business is to provide a global customer base with state-of-the-art, high quality optical products and systems for defense, law enforcement, homeland security, and recreational purposes.
