ThermTec Vidar and Ares Thermal Weapon Sights — Combat & Hunting Thermal Optics
ThermTec thermal imaging scopes detect heat signatures through total darkness, heavy fog, and dense battlefield smoke where traditional glass and night vision devices fail. This category features two distinct product families: the Vidar series, offering lightweight, streamlined thermals for general field use and dynamic shooting, and the flagship Ares series, engineered for long-range target identification and demanding tactical reconnaissance.
The Vidar series uses a balanced 384×288 VOx thermal core paired with a crisp AMOLED display, prioritizing extended runtime and compact handling. The Ares series upgrades performance with a sub-35 mK NETD 12 $\mu$m thermal sensor and shutterless Non-Uniformity Correction (NUC) for continuous tracking without image freeze. Flagship Ares models feature Dual Field of View (Dual FOV: 20 mm / 60 mm) optical systems alongside integrated Laser Rangefinders (LRF) for immediate firing solutions.
A complete weapon setup integrates standard 30mm scope rings or cantilever mounts for MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails, spare 18650/18500 lithium-ion cells, and USB Type-C cables for external power bank operation during extended operations.
