Elbit Systems Electro-Optics Elop Ltd. (Elop), a world
leader in Thermal Imaging, is introducing LILY, a new
family of lightweight Thermal Imaging Weapon Sights (TWS)
designed for use by individual infantry soldiers. Based
on Elop's many years of experience and feedback from combat
operational use of its Thermal Imagers worldwide, the
new systems provide significant advantages for operations
in total darkness and in even the most difficult environmental
conditions.
The LILY TWS contribute significantly
to the ability to acquire targets and increase the first-hit
capability. They enable the soldier to more easily discriminate
between false and valid targets in conditions of dust,
smoke, total darkness (such as in caves and/or underground
facilities), camouflage and clutter. By enabling the infantryman
to see without being seen, the LILY TWS considerably increase
survivability probability.
Providing infantry soldiers with weapon mounted TWS also
has the added value of supporting increased intelligence
collection.
