Rheinmetall as prime contractor for the programme has commissioned Thales to supply optronic systems supply in the mid-four-figure range, including its combat-proven and readily available XTRAIM sighting systems, as well as its new-generation night vision systems, which account for the vast majority of the commissioned delivery.

XTRAIM is a day/night sight that combines reflex sighting and thermal imaging, enabling rapid and accurate target engagement in all visibility conditions while reducing the burden of equipment carried by the solider. Designed to meet the demands of high-intensity combat, around 20,000 units have been sold to armed forces worldwide. ​

Building on the success of Thales’ NightRise family of night vision binoculars, the new-generation night vision system developed by Thales is designed to enhance soldiers’ survivability by providing a superior understanding of the tactical environment. Featuring an open architecture, the system facilitates interoperability and seamless connectivity with military equipment already in service, forming the core of the Optronic Soldier System. The German armed forces will be the first customer to field this new night vision system from Thales.
