The United States is ahead of other countries in terms of the technical equipment of the ordinary soldier. Another example is a video from an exercise where soldiers of the 4th Battalion of the 23rd Infantry Regiment use the latest ENVG-B thermal imaging binoculars.

The exercises were held at the base of Lewis-McChord (Washington State). After watching the video, you can understand what kind of picture the soldiers see in the dark thanks to the new binuculars. So, the computer system highlights the contours of various objects, and the color reproduction is close to daylight.

How a soldier sees in an ENVG-B binocular:

The ENVG-B is a further upgrade of the next-generation ENVG helmet-mounted thermal imager, which displays objects in the dark as close as possible to the usual colors. In combination with the FWS-I thermal imaging sight, which supports wireless data transmission, fighters will be able to get an image from the sight to the binocular and hit targets without leaving the shelter, or from around the corner.

Although thermal imagers are commonly considered night sights, the combination of the ENVG-B and FWS-I will allow American soldiers to operate during daylight hours with smoke, fog and other phenomena that limit visibility. In the future, it is planned to adapt the ENVG-B to the ability to receive images from other systems — for example, drones.
