The Newcon Gen3 has Katod Russian Gen3 tubes, as far as I understand, they are not U.S manufactured. With all this gear you have to be very careful about exactly what you are buying. Have a look at my TM listing at the moment. In Q&A a bloke has advised me he can get PVS-7B Night Vision Goggles from a outfit called night vision guys in the U.S with gen2+HP tubes for $3500 plus freighting expences.Way less than PVS-7B Goggles cost me at dealer prices.
But when I look at it they have Russian tubes with a FOM of between 480 & 900....... absolute crap, he should stick with a spotlight.
Just be damned careful !!!!
