Do we still own the night? Our near peers now have night vision goggles and the US Military is now forced to share the night. There is a problem with using Infrared laser beams and strobes during night time operations on a modern battlefield. Today's combat zones require ground forces to use a new Enhanced Night Vision Goggles system. The old PVS-14 NVG's and nods gave away their position every time they turn their PEQ15 on. Using the new ENVG-B's troops might still be able to reclaim the night and own it once more.

When the US army recently issued the first Enhanced thermal Night Vision Goggles we found out they give off a wireless signal sent to your weapons point of view superimposed onto your goggles point of view. It looks like they basically added some snapchat filters to night vision devices. This is a revolutionary new way to fight. In this video we cover the military news of strategy tactics and warfare at night. Only time will tell how useful it will be on the ground.
