The AGM UNVG-51 is an ultralight dual-tube night vision goggle with a wide 51° field of view, built for hunters, shooters and night users who want two-eye depth perception on a helmet or head mount. Each pod pivots independently for binocular, monocular or stowed use. The IP67 housing weighs about 1.1 lb and runs up to 50 hours on the included battery pack.
This is the 3APW configuration: Gen 3 auto-gated tubes with white phosphor, graded by AGM at FOM 2000+. It is the highest-graded tube in this UNVG-51 family; the 3AW1 and 3AL1 use Level 1 Gen 3 auto-gated tubes (white and green), and the NW1 uses a Gen 2+ white phosphor tube. White phosphor shows the scene in black-and-white tones instead of green, and auto-gating helps the tubes cope with sudden light changes. Versus the standard UNVG, the UNVG-51 swaps 25 mm F/1.23 lenses (40°) for 19 mm F/1.26 lenses (51°), with 17 mm eye relief.
Key features
- Gen 3 white phosphor, FOM 2000+ - auto-gated tubes rated at 64-72 lp/mm resolution and a minimum 21 signal-to-noise ratio.
- 51° field of view - wider than the 40° standard UNVG, so you scan less.
- Auto-off pods - each tube shuts off when its pod is turned aside and comes back on when returned.
- Single-knob control - one knob handles power, manual gain and the built-in IR illuminator.
- Flexible power - one AA for up to 15 h, or the external pack with four AA (50 h) or two CR123A (30 h).
- Sealed housing - PEEK and glass-fiber body, IP67, rated -40°F to +122°F.
