about eotech
L-3 EOTech, Inc. develops and manufactures products that leverage its advance electro-optics technologies. The
advanced holographic weapon sight produced by L-3 EOTech has revolutionized electronic sighting technology and
is being adopted rapidly by the elite units in the military and law enforcement agencies around the world as their
preferred and standard close quarter battle (CQB) optic for small arms. When used in CQB, this revolutionary weapon
optic delivers amazing speed and accuracy gains as well as uncompromising use of peripheral vision.

THE HOLOGRAPHIC ADVANTAGE
In holography, all the information required to reconstruct the
The Magic of Holography
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!
BATTLE PROVEN
The HWS has been designed and tested to provide consistent, reliable performance, even in the most hostile operating
environments. The HWS is waterproof (submersible), fog-proof, shock-proof, and withstands extreme temperature
variations. The HWS meets military drop test requirements with no functional degradation to the weapon optic and
holds zero to within 2 MOA! Every HWS is extensively tested in a punishing recoil simulator generating 2,000 G’s of
acceleration in less than 1.0 millisecond.
HEADS UP, FULL VIEW
Engagement with two 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 or mounting rings that block the shooters vision of the target
area. True, two eyes open shooting is realized. Instant threat identification is achieved by maximizing the operator’s
peripheral vision and ultimately gaining greater control of the engagement zone. The end result - operators achieve
maximum situational awareness.
NO REVEALING SIGNATURE
The HWS is a passive weapon optic and does not emit any muzzle side, position revealing
light signature. The projected reticle pattern is visible only to the operator. Even Gen III
night vision equipment cannot detect muzzle side signature of the operator’s position.
The result – the operator remains absolutely undetectable in any operating environment.
NO RETICLE WASHOUT
The HWS’s 30 brightness settings (10 settings in NV mode) ensure the holographic reticle
can be instantly viewed in ALL types of lighting environments, cluttered backgrounds and
target colors. The HWS delivers an impressive 50,000,000:1 bright to low reticle contrast
ratio to ensure the reticle is always clearly viewable. Reticles can be easily seen against
white targets in full sunlight – even in desert or tundra environments. With the HWS, there
are no reticle “wash out” conditions as seen in red dot sighting systems. For extreme low
light conditions, engaging the HWS’s night vision mode allows the reticle pattern to be
viewed in tandem with the most advanced night vision systems on the market today. The
30 brightness settings provide the operator the flexibility to adjust for optimal conditions
in today’s ever changing battlefields.

For Model 552.A65 HWS Specifications, see pg 9
L-3 EOTech and Laser Devices, Inc. (LDI) have teamed up to produce the EOLAD. A standard model
552.A65 Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS) that has an integrated Laser Aiming Device running on
the single battery source of the HWS.
The EOLAD combines the speed of the HWS with the power and precision of an LDI laser. This
single, compact unit provides lightning fast target acquisition with pin-point accuracy and
eliminates the added weight and bulk from the front of the weapon platform.
All EOLAD models are integrated on the Model 552.A65 HWS (see page 9 for specifications and
details). The EOLAD is available in the following models.
• EOLAD-2H—Infrared aiming laser (835nm / 35mW) and
focusable infrared illuminator (835nm / 35mW)
• EOLAD-2 SOCOM—Infrared aiming laser(835nm / 25mW)
and focusable infrared illuminator (835nm / 100mW)
• EOLAD-2L—Infrared aiming laser (835nm / 1mW)and

Due to today’s ever changing battlefield, the need to transition quickly
between close quarters combat (CQB) and medium range target
engagement is vital. Maintaining a precise shot at both distances
is a must. This ability to transition between the two distances
almost instantly and still maintain weapon accuracy is
now achieved with the new generation magnifier from L3
EOTech. Unleash the full potential of your Holographic
Weapon Sight with the addition of the new G23!
The 3x magnifier is an affordable magnified solution that
will transition a fielded HWS into a lethal medium range
optic. Superior light transmission and a large field of view
helps the magnifier put the competition to shame. This
rugged, streamlined optic offers split-second transitioning from
CQB to medium range targeting.

infrared vs visible light
Electromagnetic energy beyond visible light is called infrared. The human eye cannot see it, but
the L-3 Infrared Products cameras can. All objects emit infrared energy at ordinary temperatures. The hotter the object, the more infrared energy it emits. The human eye is capable of seeing a
small range of frequencies of the Electromagnetic Spectrum, visible light. Objects emit visible light
only at very high temperatures.
What is Thermal Imaging?
Light, heat, radio wave, x-rays and more all fall in different
parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Thermal imagers
do not see light, they see heat, which is in the Infrared
(IR) portion of this spectrum. Like visible light, heat can
be optically collected and focused. Thermal imagers
“transpose” infrared energy to shades of gray on a monitor
based on temperature levels.
Thermal imaging cameras detect activity not normally
visible to the naked eye. The hotter the object, the
more infrared energy it emits, therefore, this technology
works extremely well in both daylight or darkness. Unlike night vision technology, thermal imaging is not
susceptible to haze or smoke and cannot be blinded by
bright lights. It is an essential tool for all military and
law enforcement situations from search and rescue,
surveillance, or force protection.
The Thermal-Eye Renegade-320 is controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in
Arms Regulations (ITAR) USML Category I (f), and may not be exported to a foreign
person, either in the U.S. or abroad, without a license or
exemption from the U.S. Department of State.

how night vision works
Night vision systems work by gathering small amounts of light, such as
moonlight, starlight or infrared light, through the lenses at the front. This light
consists of photons which are particles of light. As they enter the lens of the
night vision device, they strike a light-sensitive surface called a photocathode. The photocathode converts the photons into tiny, subatomic particles that carry
electricity called Electrons. The electrons are then amplified to a greater number
by passing through a microchannel plate (MCP). Once amplified, the electrons
travel through a phosphorous screen that converts the electrons back into
photons that enable an operator to view a virtually dark environment.
Night vision systems can be categorized as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Generation. Gen III is
used most by military and law enforcement and is the most sophisticated version
to date. Here, a sensitive chemical, Gallium Arsenide, was added to provide a
brighter, sharper image as compared to Gen I and II image intensifiers.
Generation III night vision is recognized the world over as a leading differentiator
in the modern battlefield, changing urban settings and demanding tactical
engagements. EOS is a leader in developing cutting-edge Gen III and Next-Gen
night vision weapon sights and goggle systems for discriminating governments,
soldiers, police units and others that demand the finest night vision available.
