AB Nightvision RVM-14 Monocular
Choose options
The RVM-14 monocular housing is billet machined from 7075 aircraft grade aluminum and designed to handle challenging real-world environments. The housing design accepts standard mil-spec PVS-14 lenses, or lightweight RPO lenses.
The monocular features a side mounting area to accept PVS-14 accessories and mounts with a standard ¼-20 thread. Two monos can also be attached to a bridge mount (RVM-14 Bridge) in a binocular configuration with the small dovetail incorporated into the top of the housing, or the dovetail can be used with the RVM-14 Arm for single mono use. Both the Arm and Bridge are articulating to lay back against the helmet when in the stowed position.
The monocular design features a rotary switch that doubles as gain adjustment. The switch initially turns the tube on at full brightness, then dims the MX-11769 image intensifier tube as the knob is rotated further. The unit includes an onboard infrared illuminator activated by a push button switch on the front of the unit. The button is
surrounded by a protective fence to prevent accidental activation. Indicators on the edge of the viewing area show if the IR LED is actively on, or if the unit detects a low battery.
The RVM-14 weighs 15% less than a typical single AA PVS-14 with a 50% longer battery life and has a much tougher housing.
The monocular is available in Flat Black and Flat Dark Earth. The components of the monocular are media blasted to give a non-reflective matte finish, then black anodized for durability. For the FDE option, Cerakote, a proven firearms finish, is applied over the anodizing to give a tough, attractive finish.
