Many light tactical and patrol vehicles in service today were not designed for NVG-based night driving. Their lighting is built around white light, legacy halogen units or improvised IR filters. That produces uneven illumination and stray light, and it does not match the sensors drivers now us
RAVEN is designed to close that gap on existing fleets. The IR illuminator mounts on the vehicle front and produces a rectangular 80° × 30° pattern, matched to standard sensor aspect ratios. The driver gets a uniform image of the route through helmet-mounted NVG, and no white light is emitted.
Retrofit depends on fitting what is already there. RAVEN weighs 600 g and measures 100 × 67 × 48 mm. It runs on 18–32 V vehicle power, draws 25 W nominal and under 3 W in standby, and uses MIL-DTL-38999 connectors. It is certified to MIL-STD-461G, MIL-STD-810H and MIL-STD-1275E, which covers EMC, environmental and vehicle power requirements on military platforms.
A vehicle’s operational value is often limited by individual capabilities rather than by the platform itself. Upgrading night driving capability on an existing fleet supports mid-life upgrade programmes and extends the useful service life of vehicles already procured, at a fraction of the cost and lead time of new platform
Wavelength is selected to match the sensor in use: 850 nm, 940 nm or 1550 nm. The vehicle and the goggles stay in service, and only the illumination is upgraded.
