Currently in use by US Armed Forces as well as NATO allies around the world, the PVS-14 / Sentry 14 can be used as a hand-held or hands-free single eye goggle, or as a night vision weapon system when coupled to a daytime close quarters battle sight.

Simple user controls include a 3-position switch (OFF/ON/Momentary and constant IR). The system’s Generation 3 or Generation 2 (NO-6015 variant) image tube features Automatic Brightness Control and is protected by fully-automated sensors that shut off the unit within seconds if accidentally exposed to bright light. Sophisticated electronics turn off the Sentry 14 when removed from the head or helmet mount or when shifted into to the “UP” position.
