AN/PVS-4 (Night Vision Sight, Individual Served Weapon, AN/PVS-4) is the U.S. military designation for a specification of the first second generation passive Night vision device. The AN/PVS-4 first saw widespread use during the Gulf War and later some deployment in the Iraq War and has since been replaced by modern third-generation weapon sights.

In accordance with the Joint Electronics Type Designation System (JETDS), the "AN/PVS-4" designation represents the 4th design of an Army-Navy electronic device for portable visual detection equipment. The JETDS system also now is used to name all Department of Defense electronic systems.

 

Features M16/M203/M79 Reticle

The M16 reticle features a range-estimator and a three-point cross-hair that provides an aiming point for close range, 200m and 400m.


The same reticle is also used for the M203 and the M79.

a. Reticle cell for M16A1/A2, M203, and M79 weapons

(1) Vertical lines at top of reticle indicate range (in hundreds of meters) of a 6 foot tall standing person. Measurement is made from the horizontal line to the top (or bottom) of each vertical line for the range indicated.

(2) The horizontal line of the range scale indicates the range (in hundreds of meters) of a 20-foot target such as a tank viewed from the side. Place the left edge of the tank at the left side of the horizontal line. The range to the tank is read from the scale at the right edge of the tank, The width of the tank is approximately half the length, so replacement of the tank width on the ranging symbol is read as one-half the range scale value.

(3) Aiming points for the M16A1/A2, M203 and M79 grenade launchers are shown as small dots in a horizontal row to the right of the reticle center. Aiming points are for 200, 300, and 400 meters.

(4) The M16A1/A2 aiming point for ranges out to 250 meters is the center of the three straight lines. The top of the vertical line is the aiming point for 400 meters, and the bottom of the line is the aiming point for 600 meters.

(5) Locate target, estimate range and place the proper aiming point on the target. (For grenade launchers, also adjust the bracket to the proper elevation.)
