Las Vegas, Nevada—
Since 2005 TNVC has sought to supply the most effective and most superior mission and end-user targeted merchandise, know-how, and techniques integration options within the Visible Augmentation Programs (VAS) area to warfighters, regulation enforcement, and personal residents alike, which has led to quite a few partnerships with industry-leading innovators.
TNVC is happy to announce our newest such partnership with Swift Common Optical Programs and to introduce the Swift Common FPG-21 Low Profile Evening Imaginative and prescient Goggle Mount! The FPG-21 isn’t any minor evolution of already-existing industrial off the shelf (COTS) NVG mounting options however an virtually full re-imagining of the NVG helmet mount and is on show on the 2025 NSSF SHOT Present in Las Vegas, Nevada, within the TNVC Sales space #62211 within the Galilieo ballroom on the primary flooring of the Venetian Expo Heart.
Initially funded by a Small Enterprise Innovation Analysis (SBIR) grant in 2019 on the request of U.S. Particular Operations Command (USSOCOM) and growing into an lively Program of Report, the FPG-21 sought to enhance the stow angle of NVG helmet mounts to scale back torque and acute and probably power, long run neck accidents in end-users, significantly when used with extra superior however heavier subsequent era headborne techniques similar to panoramic and fused goggle techniques, and significantly the F-PANO Fusion Panoramic Goggle by transferring the goggle’s heart of gravity (COG) to a extra impartial place when stowed.
The FPG-21’s improved stow angle rotates the goggle’s orientation virtually 180obackwards, practically sitting flat throughout the highest of the helmet, inserting the goggle’s COG decrease and additional to the rear than conventional BNVS helmet mounting options whereas Swift Common’s patented “Tilt Agnostic Stow” ensures that irrespective of how the end-user adjusts the goggle’s tilt within the deployed place, the goggle will all the time stow on the optimum angle to scale back ahead torque.
Taken collectively, the FPG-21’s distinctive stow properties not solely scale back the danger of neck harm, but in addition considerably diminished “felt weight” within the stowed place, translating to diminished fatigue and better consolation throughout extended put on, and rising end-user efficiency, functionality, and lethality. Furthermore, the FPG-21 is exceptionally inflexible and clearance for scoped weapons—all whereas decreasing general weight, leading to a sublime but rugged and very secure and inflexible VAS mounting answer that has been developed and vetted with intensive end-user suggestions, analysis and area testing for the reason that first prototypes have been delivered in 2021.
Whereas most customers instantly discover the elevated rigidity and diminished torque within the stowed place, the Swift Common FPG-21 additionally possesses a number of distinctive options. Relatively than counting on the legacy BNVS shoe, initially designed for the AN/PVS-7A, the FPG-21 depends on a bigger and broader shoe design for the goggle-to-mount interface that additionally serves as an eye-relief adjustment “sled,” whereas the elevated floor space and precision tolerances contribute to the techniques notable rigidity. The brand new shoe / adjustment sled design can both be utilized as a direct substitute for OEM BNVS footwear or with an adapter plate that locks securely to current, USSOCOM-spec BNVS footwear like these on the AN/PVS-31A, GPNVG, and F-BINO techniques, requiring no modification to the goggle.
The FPG-21 interfaces immediately with the Ops-Core Modular Bungee Shroud (MBS) included on the USSOCOM-standard FTHS helmet, that includes a brand new, interlocking, travel-limited adjustment system that serves as each the mount’s elevation adjustment and permits the mount to be fully faraway from the helmet and dishing out with the legacy “common” mounting interface used for the reason that AN/PVS-7 and additional rising the system’s rigidity.
The FPG-21 can also be totally environmentally sealed, assembly or exceeding MIL-STD-810H requirements. The primary meeting is machined from 7075 aluminum and Sort III Laborious-Coat anodized, whereas the interior mechanisms are machined from hardened corrosion resistant Stainless Metal and Grade 5 Titanium, leading to a particularly sturdy but in addition light-weight system. Weighing simply 118 grams (not together with goggle adapter plate or shroud) the FPG-21 is manufactured and assembled in-house at Swift Common Optical Programs’ state-of-the-art facility in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
The Swift Common Optical Programs FPG-21 Low Profile NVG Mount will probably be accessible by TNVC to authorities, regulation enforcement, industrial sellers, and particular person retail prospects, with deliveries anticipated to start in Q3 2025 with an estimated MSRP within the $1,500 vary (inclusive of goggle adapter / direct-mount shoe) and events are inspired to contactgovsales@tnvc.com or dealersales@tnvc.com. Industrial pre-order particulars will probably be forthcoming shortly.
The FPG-21 is on show on the 2025 NSSF SHOT Present in Las Vegas, Nevada, within the TNVC Sales space #62211 within the Galilieo ballroom on the primary flooring of the Venetian Expo Heart.
