Kauffmann-Bremin DT-2 Housing

The Kauffmann-Bremin DT-2 is the latest polymer-based housing from the original designer of the DTNVG. Engineered as a lightweight, rugged, and highly serviceable binocular platform, the DT-2 is the spiritual successor to the original DTNVG—refined for simplicity and durability.

Made in Europe from high-density injection molded polymers, the DT-2 offers straightforward controls, improved serviceability, and a compact, low-profile design that makes it an ideal choice for end-users and builders alike.
