| Design |
|
Originally built around a generation two image tube, the introduction of the generation three image tube increased the system performance by more than 50 percent and the tube lifespan by more than 300 percent. The 680-gramme AN/PVS-7D (F5001) can be hand-held, helmetmounted, or head-strap mounted for hands-free operation. Key features include: a quick-release lever to permit one-handed attachment/detachment from helmet or head harness; an automatic highlight cutoff to protect the image intensiPer; an "IR-on" indicator; and a low-voltage indicator.

| Power source |
|
The PVS-7D runs on two AA batteries and power the unit for more than 40 hours. For optimum performance, maximum durability, and the best possible supportability, the AN/PVS-7D is the best choice for law enforcement, home security, outdoorsmen, boaters, campers, wildlife studies, or predator control.

| Technology |
| Features include an infrared LED (for use in complete darkness and assist in reading maps), an LED warning light (which is built into the unit to remind the user that the infrared LED can be seen by others who are using night vision devices), a low battery warning light (built into the unit), and there a high light cutoff (which will turn the unit off if it is left on during daylight conditions). |
