Raytheon ELCAN SpecterDR deployed to US Special Operations and Navy Seals

Development of the SpecterDR 1X-4X:

In 2003 the US SOCOM started to upgrade its fire control accessories for the M4 Carbine. The key technological objective for the day optic was “to provide not only a long-range deliberate aiming capability, but also a short range, positive, rapid aiming capability for Close Quarters Battle…in a single sight” critical in urban combat.

Raytheon ELCAN Optical Technologies met this need by proposing and demonstrating SpecterDR, a high performance switch-able 1x- 4x dual-field-of-view (DFOV) combat optic.  Its potential established, Raytheon ELCAN incorporated user feedback driven spiral improvements that resulted in a series of design features that made the SpecterDR match the operational needs of soldiers better than any competitive offering.  Clever design and rigorous testing further optimized how the sight performed as a subsystem of the weapon. In full and open competition with 5 Operational Trials against alternative sighting solutions, the Raytheon ELCAN SpecterDR was awarded 100% of the SOPMOD production requirements.  Users favored the SpecterDR 9-to-1 over any competitive offerings while test data showed that it outperformed legacy solutions. By achieving the SOCOM objective, SpecterDR has eliminated the need to switch between sights in-combat by combining for the war fighter a true unity (1.0X) power for both eyes open close combat, and 4X magnification for precision aiming combat in a single light weight package.

In addition to the day operation benefits, SpecterDR has also allowed SOCOM to achieve the full benefits of its clip-on night vision device (CNVD) strategy. Operators are vulnerable when they are switching between optics and the act of switching also always carries the risk of impairing bore sight accuracy.   Using a CNVD eliminates the need to switch between a day optic and a night vision sight since the CNVD simply “clips-on” in front of the day optic.   With SpecterDR, operators now never need to switch between optics and they never have to second guess about their weapon system accuracy.  SpecterDR is given the designation SU-230/PVS in the SOPMOD Block 2 kit.
