\n ELCAN Specter DR dual role sight enhances optical capabilities for NATO allies <\/i>
\n <\/b>\n <\/p>\n

\n NUREMBERG, Germany<\/span><\/span>, Feb. 24, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business was awarded an additional multi-million-dollar contract by the Danish Defence Armed Forces for ELCAN Specter DR dual role sights. The NATO Support Procurement Support Agency (NSPA) is the contracting authority.<\/p>\n

The ELCAN Specter DR sight is a direct-view optic that provides close quarters and precision capability in a single sight. The Specter DR sight switches instantly between magnifications, providing the user with “both eyes open” target acquisition while boresight, eye relief and sight picture remain constant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The Specter DR dual role sight is battle-proven, enabling soldiers to be more effective on the battlefield,” said Mike Lewis<\/span>, director and general manager at Raytheon ELCAN. “Raytheon ELCAN continues to work with our customers across NATO to deliver rugged, reliable optics that give our allies a competitive advantage when it matters most.”<\/p>\n

The ELCAN Specter DR optical day sights will replace the ELCAN C79 fixed 3.4x sights.<\/p>\n
