Abstract: A bridge member for connecting first and second image intensifier tubes in a portable night vision apparatus including a body; a first pivotable member associated with the first image intensifier tube; and a second pivotable member associated with the second image intensifier tube. The bridge member is configured to move between a first position and a second position, the first position corresponding to the first and second image intensifier tubes being in an active position, the second position corresponding to the first and second image intensifier tubes being in a stored position, the second position corresponding to the first and second image intensifier tubes being positioned adjacent an outer surface of the helmet. The first pivotable member is configured to move the first image intensifier tube between the first and second positions. The second pivotable member is configured to move the second image intensifier tube between the first and second positions.

Abstract: A modular rapid deployment explosive charge device, the device being configured for simple assembly and ease of access and placement at a target site, with the feature that detonation cords may be reversibly loaded, adjusted, removed or replaced to facilitate flexibility of operation and adjustments to intended characteristics and impact of blast event, facilitate flexibility of operation in placement and in timing of explosive blast event, and features of the device system and methods of fabrication and assembly thereof.

Abstract: A portable night vision apparatus comprising at least one image intensifier tube and a memory. The at least one image intensifier tube is coupled to a power supply and coupled to a processor. The memory is coupled to the processor for the storage of data relating to the apparatus and to the use of the apparatus.

Abstract: A bladder for tamping explosives, the bladder having a reservoir with a sealable opening at a top end thereof, the reservoir being configured to hold an incompressible liquid, and an explosive retaining member disposed on a rear side of the reservoir, the explosive retaining member being configured to hold one or more explosives against the rear side of the reservoir.

Abstract: Weapons control systems are disclosed including a handheld display and wiring loom configurations for weapons control systems. A control system for a weapon comprises a sight unit for mounting to the weapon for capturing image data for targeting the weapon. The control system also comprises a handheld display having a sight viewable by at least one eye of an operator of the weapon to view data associated with operation of the weapon including image data collected by the sight unit and a controller to control operation of the weapon. The control system also comprises a communication system coupled to be in communication with the handheld display and the sight unit to enable the operator to remotely view the data associated with operation of the weapon and simultaneously control operation of the weapon.
