In addition, THEON SENSORS will provide its night vision spare and repair parts, logistics support and test article refurbishment throughout the contract term.

Due to the high quality of the Night Vision Binocular, it has been awarded in 2019 (a 5- Year IDIQ Program of $249ml) by USMC for the SBNVG I Program and codified in US as AN/PVS-31D.
