Yes it has a disturbed reticle. Other soldiers In the squad can even designate and range something for you.

Yeah they ran into hard physics limits at 70 degrees in horizontal spread but in the newest revision (which is essentially a hololens 3) they pretty substantially increased the vertical FOV though which was already substantially better than envg-b.

SIG are selling commercial versions of their NGSW candidate.
This begs the question; is this because they won, or because they lost?

Just adding evidence that IVAS ain’t dead.

Firing a 80000 psi cartridge from a 13 inch barrel will doubtless be impressive.

Thanks for sharing
If IVAS finally delivers even part of what has been announced, it will be more than transformative.
The most important aspect of IVAS, in my opinion, would be IVAS as a front-end and interface to and with BMS.
Indeed in this half decade so many transformative systems are going to feedback between them that it seems to me more and more difficult to make even the simplest predictions except one: war in the broadest sense of the term (including new forms of war) is going to be more and more disconnected of what we think combat is

It might not mean either.
According to the article, the Army has not yet made a decision.
SIG may simply be trying to profit from commercial sales while waiting for the Army to select a winner.

Its smart way to lobby the army.
In the past many projects US military paid for and never completed , found a second lease of life on the market be it civilian or military only to have US military circle back a couple of years later and buying a modification of an off the shelf system.

Well, both civilian cartridge and rifle have need a full development cycle. SiG decided to develop them independently of final NGSW winner, because they could not it a number of months ago
