The Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation, Serhiy Sternenko’s community, and monobank have handed over 500 night vision devices to the Special Operations Forces.

The press service of the Foundation reported on this.

The Special Operations Forces reportedly received Armasight PVS-14 Gen-3 night vision devices, which were funded as part of the Nightmare project.

“For Special Operations Forces, these devices are valuable helpers, as they provide a clear image even in complete darkness. This is a very useful quality for night operations and helps in both reconnaissance and assaults,” according to the Foundation.

The Foundation added that the next batch of 500 night vision devices will soon be sent to the Marines and Air Assault Forces.

The Foundation thanked Anton Tymoshenko, Metalist 1925 Club, Nova Poshta, Dragon Capital, Bandeyka Community, Multiplex, Transport Service Group Ukraine, AVIS UKRAGRO GROUP, Vidi, Duck, and VOLTAR for their most significant contributions to the fundraising.

“Thanks to your donations, we continue to provide the army with the necessary equipment,” the benefactors emphasized.

The launch of the Militarnyi project was announced on June 21, with plans to raise UAH 160 million for 1,000 night vision devices.

The PVS-14 is a wearable monocular night vision device developed by the American corporation ITT and put into mass production in the 2000s.

It is a purely military model: it was developed for the U.S. Army and is still in use today. It works in both passive and active modes. The range of human detection and recognition is 350 and 300 meters, respectively.

It has high sensitivity and resolution, allowing operators to see a considerable distance in the dark. They are compact and have a simple, adaptive design.

The operating time on a single charge is up to 40 hours. The AN/PVS-14 can be mounted on a helmet or on a weapon. However, it cannot be used as an independent sight.

The third generation of this device will allow the military to get a clear, bright image in complete darkness.

The volunteers said that these devices will help the military carry out assault, reconnaissance, sabotage, and reconnaissance operations at night.

The devices can be used as monoculars and can also be attached to a helmet to provide excellent mobility and comfort in combat conditions.
