US soldiers to deploy with night vision that shoots around corners

The US Army’s new advanced night vision goggles are going through their final round of user testing before full-rate production and fielding later this year.

The Enhanced Night Vision Goggles – Binocular (ENVG-B) offer improved depth perception, situational awareness, and thermal imaging.

More importantly, these high-end optics will allow soldiers to accurately shoot from the hip and even around corners accurately.

An armored brigade combat team set to deploy to South Korea this fall is expected to be the first unit to deploy with the new system, according to Army Times.
