The most striking feature of the DTG-18N is the presence of four separate image intensifier tubes with four separate objective lenses arrayed in a panoramic orientation and can provide the operator more information.
The operator sees the two center tubes somewhat overlapping the two outer tubes to produce an unprecedented 120° FOV. This is an absolute game-changer for the SOF community.
They can also be easily removed and operated as independent handheld viewers. The IPD of the two system can be adjusted on the helmet mount.
The DTG-18N is not only powered by a battery on the device, but also by a remote battery packs, tethered to the unit via a standard DC cable. It comes with a pack that accepts four 3-Volt CR123A batteries that tend to power the unit for 50-80 hours (IR off).
