EFV MIRVS TIS DU
Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle Mid Wave Infared Viewing System
Thermal Imaging System Display Unit

Palomar Display Products has designed and produced this high resolution display for the USMC Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV).

The MIRVS TIS DU is part of an infrared vision targeting sight. The sight collects and displays radiation corresponding to wavelengths ranging from 3.5 to microns (µm) in the IR spectral band. The information is processed and displayed as a visible representation for the EFV gunner. The MIRVS DU also displays reticles and vehicle interfaces to aid in the operation of the EFV.

The DU is the main electronic interface between the MIRVS and the rest of the vehicle. Optical encoders control the contrast, brightness, and reticles. Separate controls are used for AGLE, ALC, and polarity. A high-resolution CRT with integral biocular provides a projected gui (graphic user interface). Software menus prompt for advanced detection features and BIT.The EFV DU is seawater submersible to a minimum of 1 meter.
