Notes edit

  1. ^ NSN listing states it is a "note pad", likely a typo for notebook (computer), as referenced in AUSA article
  2. ^ KAC and OSTI co-designed the AN/PVS-22 and made adjustments to the design at the behest of SOCOM prior to being awarded the contract. The design came from OSTI but KAC managed the supply of it to the military and also participated in the design revisions. The scope was called UNS for Universal Night Sight. In 2005, KAC and OSTI had a falling out and sued each other over copyrights for the name "UNS" and "Universal Night Sight". A federal court ruled that both claims were without merit which was sustained on appeal. Afterward, FLIR seemed to get hold of the rights to the design and supplied the military with it for a time. FLIR also sells the MilSight T105 which claims to be the design the PVS-22 is based on. KAC still uses UNS on some of its products and names a clip-on that improved on the PVS-22 as the AN/PVS-22 A1 (even though its NSN confusingly refers to it as the AN/PVS-22). Meanwhile, OSTI disappeared from public view and it is not known if they were bought out by FLIR or any other company.
  3. ^ a b For some time AN/PVS-29 did refer to the KAC UNS LR LP (not to be confused with the PVS-26 UNS LRLP) but this clip-on sight eventually was re-designated the AN/PVS-30 UNS LR LP.
