18 mm Gen 3 intensifiers with auto-gated options, variable gain control, and TSO-certified models. Compatible with PVS‑14, F5032, and more.
Experience next-generation clarity with MX11769 GEN 3 Image Intensifier Tubes, available through ASU from trusted OEMs Elbit Systems and L3 Harris. Designed for use in AN/PVS‑14 monoculars and F5032 binocular systems, these 18 mm tubes deliver outstanding image quality and durability in mission-critical conditions.
Choose between gated and non-gated versions. Auto-gated models offer exceptional performance in high-light or light-polluted urban environments by quickly adapting to dynamic lighting. Each tube features variable gain control, allowing users to fine-tune brightness levels for optimal clarity and reduced eye strain.
Available in both white and green phosphor, these tubes come in a wide range of Figure of Merit (FOM) ratings—from 1400 to unlimited—to match your operational requirements. All options are ITAR controlled and FAA TSO C164a approved, ensuring compliance for aviation and government use.
