Elbit America Awarded $135 Million Contract for Night Vision Technology

Elbit Systems of America is among the suppliers awarded a contract by the Defense Logistics Agency Land at Aberdeen, valued at up to $135 million. The contract is for white phosphor image intensification tubes, which will be used in the AN/PVS-14 Monocular Night Vision Device (PVS-14) by the US Army. Work under this firm-fixed-price, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract will be carried out at the company’s Roanoke, Va., facility through Jan. 30, 2030.

A force-multiplier for ground-based soldiers with a history of proven performance, the PVS-14 is essential for engagement in low-light and no-light conditions. The PVS-14 is a helmet-mounted passive device that amplifies ambient light, using sophisticated image intensification tubes. 

“Elbit America’s image intensification tubes offer extended detection ranges and exceptional image resolution,” said Erik Fox, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Elbit America’s Warfighter Systems. “For nearly 70 years, our highly-skilled workforce has supplied the critical night vision our nation’s military relies on for situational awareness and decision-making. All of us at Elbit America take great pride in our work, knowing it helps contribute to the safety and success of our service members.” 

Elbit America is trusted to deliver night vision solutions and intensification tubes under multiple contracts supporting the U.S. Armed Forces and allies. The equipment is an essential component for a wide variety of modern military operations.
