Operation Eastwind

This is a TVS-2 it is a HUGE observation night vision scope that was used both on the M2 50 cal machine gun and also for dismounted LP/OP work. We got this a while back and now have it up and running. We’ll be using this for night LP/OP work paired up with a period correct Hughes Probeye thermal imager. The thermal will tell you where something is, the TVS will then tell you who it is by reading their name tape…
The optical clarity on this thing is absurd. With my PVS-14, I see that there something slightly out of place a long ways off…. We pan the TVS-2 around and it’s a water tower, an aluminum one, with 5 legs, and 3 lines of writing on it… The PVS-14 sees that there is a farm perhaps 1.5 km away… The TVS says it’s a single story house with a bay window to the right of the front door. There’s 3 outbuildings and an old truck parked beside the largest of them. It’s a Dodge truck, with a flat right front tire.
