British Tank Equipped with Israeli-Made Vision System


(The Drive) Joseph Trevithick - The British Army recently showed off a Challenger 2 main battle tank optimized for urban operations, dubbed Streetfighter II. The vehicle has an Israeli-made IronVision system, which allows the crew to see in all directions while riding inside with all the hatches closed. IronVision consists of an array of electro-optical and infrared cameras positioned around the hull of an armored vehicle, which then feed into a helmet-mounted display. The system "stitches" the feeds together, giving the individual wearing the helmet the ability to "see" right through the hull of the tank in any direction, day or night.
