    Hot damn. I’ve seen videos of coast guard rescues using them and even a few light sources blow out their vision. They were above an illuminated airport with multiple planes around them and the light from stars on a clear night.

      Which generation of night vision?

      Only the ancient hardware performs as you describe.

        shrug-outta-hecks No other explanation would be more vindicating for the blackhawk pilot, who otherwise is just someone who murdered everyone on that plane through their negligence/incompetence. I’m just looking for any technical element apart from the military willfully killing 64 civilians.
