The ELCAN® Optical Sight is a rugged, lightweight instrument which comprises an optical telescope and mount assembly. Developed in close cooperation with the Canadian Armed Forces, the ELCAN® 3.4 power Optical Sight exhibits superior performance for daylight target acquisition, identification and hit accuracy. This performance has been extended by the use of an extra large exit pupil of 8.5mm diameter, which provides optimum performance during low-light dawn and dusk conditions. Even on the darkest nights, flares or the moon will provide enough illumination to maintain the effectiveness of the ELCAN®.
The ELCAN® Optical Sight is in service with the Canadian Forces, US Army, Dutch, Danish and Australian Armies. Its performance and durability have been fully proven through extensive field trials and environmental tests to full military specifications.
