Kauffmann-Bremin DT-2 Night Vision  Goggles

The Kauffmann-Bremin DT-2 is the newest housing from the original designer of the DTNVG, serving as its spiritual successor and offering a lightweight, rugged, and highly serviceable platform. Built from high-density injection molded polymers in Europe, the DT-2 is a no-frills, straightforward, and ergonomic articulating binocular designed for both professional end-users and dedicated hobbyists.

Borrowing design cues from the wildly popular DTNVG, the DT-2 improves on serviceability and user experience, offering a simple yet highly effective housing that is easy to maintain, budget-friendly, and EU-made—without sacrificing quality.
