FLIR Systems, Inc. presents three new innovative infrared imaging systems at this year’s Eurosatory defense and security exposition: the handheld Recon V, the HISS-XLR long range thermal weapon sight, and the TacFLIR 280-HD for mobile surveillance platforms.

Recon V: The latest member of the field-proven Recon family, the Recon V is a compact, rugged, ultra light-weight multi-sensor thermal binocular designed for field operations that require enhanced imagery and long standoff range, 24/7.

With internal GPS, Digital Magnetic Compass, and long-range laser rangefinder, the Recon V provides accurate range to target and target geo-location. The 10x continuous zoom optic, MEMS-based electronic stabilization, and high definition color video display combine to provide unmatched image quality and flexibility, while operating on readily-available AA Lithium batteries.

Its new, simple user interface eliminates multiple buttons and complicated multi-layer menus and makes the Recon V easier to use than ever.

HISS-XLR: The new HISS-XLR clip-on thermal weapon sight allows snipers to detect and recognize man-size targets in excess of 2,000 meters, an increase in engagement range of more than 25% compared to previous models.

Fully tested on weapons up to and including .50 caliber, the HISS-XLR includes a built-in ballistics mode that can give an instantaneous target solution when integrated with laser rangefinder and ballistics computer.

The HISS-XLR includes an integrated DMC for azimuth information, can be remotely operated with the stock-mountable control pendant, and its high definition display provides cleaner text and symbology while allowing the use of day scopes of up to 25x without image distortion.

TACFLIR 280-HD: Built from nearly two decades of maritime combat experience and designed to survive and thrive in extreme environments, the TacFLIR 280-HD (photo) is the first compact multi-sensor imaging system to deliver high definition digital imagery from all of its imaging sensors in a compact, mobile ground surveillance package.

With up to four high definition imaging payloads – including midwave thermal, daylight, low light, and a long-range spotter scope option – plus three laser payloads for rangefinding, illumination, and target pointing, the TacFLIR 280-HD provides the powerful performance and unmatched SWAP needed for tactical defense and security missions.
