EVPÚ Defence to Provide CMS-1 Commander Sights for Czech CV90 Infantry Fighting Vehicles
EVPÚ Defence partners with BAE Systems Hagglunds to supply advanced CMS-1 commander sights for the Czech CV90 infantry fighting vehicle program, enhancing battlefield command and control with multi-sensor electro-optical capabilities and rugged design meeting ballistic protection standards.
EVPÚ Defence, a Czech defense company, has recently made a significant stride in enhancing the Czech CV90 infantry fighting vehicle program. Teaming up with BAE Systems Hagglunds, they're providing advanced CMS-1 commander sights. This collaboration highlights a crucial step forward in the partnership between these two defense giants.
So, what exactly is the CMS-1 system? Well, it's a cutting-edge technology designed to be used on both wheeled and tracked armored vehicles. What makes it stand out are its multi-sensor electro-optical capabilities, which greatly improve command and control on the battlefield. It consists of three main components: a day zoom camera, a cooled thermal night camera, and a laser rangefinder. Together, these elements ensure seamless operation regardless of weather conditions or lighting.
But that's not all. The CMS-1 system is built tough. Encased in a rugged container made of Armox, it offers exceptional vibration resistance and meets Level II ballistic protection standards according to STANAG 4569 and AEP-55. This means it can withstand harsh conditions, ensuring reliability in even the most challenging environments.
This advancement not only boosts the operational capabilities of the Czech armed forces but also underscores EVPÚ Defence's standing as a key player in the global defense manufacturing industry. Their commitment to innovation and quality is evident in the CMS-1 system, which promises to make a real difference on the battlefield.
