Description
The AN/PVS-15 is based on the DoD nomenclature for the M953. It is a purpose-built ground operations binocular night vision device and is currently issued to members of USSOCOM.
The AN/PVS-15 is self-contained, relatively lightweight unit that provides the operator with much-improved depth perception over single tube devices. The housing is engineered to be more rugged, yet still retain the same level of performance as aviation night vision goggles such as the ANVIS-9/6. The AN/PVS-15 has been made famous by photos of USSOCOM operators wearing them in the Global War on Terror. They far surpass single tube systems when used in a land navigation or vehicle operation role. The human brain requires both eyes to determine depth. Using dual tubes, the brain can quickly and naturally resolve images. The AN/PVS-15’s body housing is self-contained and rugged. The battery compartment is part of the actual device, so there is no need to run a remote cable. Diopter and ocular adjustments are easy and familiar to anyone with NV experience. The tube housings are easily adjusted to fit the operator. The built-in IR Illuminator does a good job of lighting up close-in areas as well. The M953-I uses full Mil-Spec Filmless L3 tubes, while the PVS15SLG uses Commercial-Spec Gen3 PINNACLE (the same quality of tube found in the PVS-14 Night Enforcer).
