L3Harris (BNVD) AN/PVS-31A


Description

The L3Harris AN/PVS-31A Binocular Night Vision Device (BNVD) is a premium, military-grade night vision system built for elite operators, law enforcement professionals, and serious tactical users. As a dual-tube binocular system, it delivers an immersive, depth-perception-rich view in complete darkness - giving users a decisive advantage in low-light and no-light environments. L3Harris is one of the most trusted names in night vision technology, and the AN/PVS-31A represents the cutting edge of that legacy.

Designed to meet and exceed the demands of fielded military units, this device delivers exceptional image clarity, rugged durability, and reliable performance in the harshest conditions. Whether mounted to a helmet or used handheld, the BNVD AN/PVS-31A is a premier choice for anyone who requires uncompromising optical performance when it matters most.


Key Features

  • Binocular Dual-Tube Design: Two independent image intensifier tubes provide true depth perception and a wider, more natural field of view compared to monocular systems.
  • AN/PVS-31A Military Designation: Officially fielded by U.S. military units - this is the real-deal mil-spec BNVD, not a commercial approximation.
  • L3Harris Image Intensifier Tubes: Built with L3Harris-manufactured Gen 3 image intensifier tubes, recognized for high resolution and low-light sensitivity.
  • Helmet Mountable: Designed for standard helmet-mount compatibility, including GPNVG and NVG mount interfaces used by military and law enforcement.
  • Compact and Lightweight Form Factor: Engineered to reduce head-borne weight and fatigue during extended operations compared to legacy binocular NVG systems.
  • Rugged Mil-Spec Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of real-world tactical use - including shock, vibration, and environmental exposure.
  • Low-Profile Binocular Bridge: The bridging system allows both tubes to fold and pivot independently for compact stowage and rapid deployment.
  • IR Compatibility: Fully compatible with IR lasers, IR illuminators, and other tactical accessories such as the ATPIAL-C for target acquisition.
  • Trusted Military Fielding: The AN/PVS-31A has been adopted and fielded by special operations and conventional military forces, establishing a proven operational track record.

FAQ

What is the difference between the AN/PVS-31A and the PVS-14?

The PVS-14 is a monocular device - it uses a single image intensifier tube and is worn over one eye. The AN/PVS-31A is a binocular (dual-tube) system, meaning it provides a full two-eyed view with true depth perception. This makes the BNVD significantly more immersive and practical for tasks requiring spatial awareness, such as driving, fast-roping, or close-quarters movement. The tradeoff is cost and weight, but for serious operational use, the binocular advantage is substantial.

Is the AN/PVS-31A legal to own as a civilian?

Yes - Generation 3 image intensifier tubes and devices like the AN/PVS-31A are legal for U.S. civilians to own and use. However, they are export-controlled under ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations), meaning they cannot be exported outside the United States without proper licensing. Always verify current regulations in your jurisdiction before purchasing.

What helmet mounts are compatible with the AN/PVS-31A?

The AN/PVS-31A is designed for compatibility with standard military NVG helmet mounts, including the standard Wilcox and Norotos-style shroud mount systems commonly used on ACH, ECH, MICH, and Ops-Core style helmets. We recommend confirming compatibility with your specific helmet and mount interface before purchasing. Contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for guidance.

Does the AN/PVS-31A work with IR lasers and illuminators?

Yes. The AN/PVS-31A is fully compatible with IR lasers (such as the L3Harris ATPIAL-C), IR illuminators, and other tactical accessories operating in the near-infrared spectrum. This makes it an ideal centerpiece for a complete night operations kit.

What kind of environments can the AN/PVS-31A handle?

Built to military specifications, the AN/PVS-31A is designed to operate reliably in extreme environments including temperature extremes, high humidity, rain, dust, and rough handling. It meets the rugged requirements expected of equipment fielded with front-line military units.
