The SpecterCT CT40 thermal night vision sight from ELCAN is designed to be mounted forward of, and used in conjunction with, a daytime optic. This configuration provides a thermal sight picture that does not alter the original optic's eye relief, reticle, or zero point.

Thermal imaging surpasses the abilities of intensification systems by relying on the target's heat signature instead of supplemental IR illumination. Camouflage and traditional obscurants such as fog, netting, smoke, etc. do not impede the detection and recognition range of a thermal imager - the subject might run, but it cannot hide its heat.

The SpecterCT sports a compact form-factor with an integral A.R.M.S. throw lever mount. It's shock resistant, waterproof and submersible to 33' for 120 minutes. Additionally, this amazing thermal optic offers an outstanding 7 hour run-time, silent-mode operation, and battery/power saving circuitry.
