Can anyone tell me from experience if the gen 3 civilian stuff is as good as the military issue pilkington kite site and Litton nvg's we had a few years ago in the military?

I was on the trial that tested that gear among others and although they were not my personal preference, they were pretty good bits of kit all the same.
I seen plenty of animals with both while doing army stuff. With and without IR assistance.
Has what we can buy now got better than that, is what I am asking?

R93 : Here are a couple of photos taken just before half moon and slightly overcast. The one of the scrub is actually a Wallaby with the sight on him taken through a Pilkington Kite. The second is my son with the same wallaby at left about 10 min later taken with a Katod Gen3 PVS-7. No IR light used in either photo.
