The RNVG-A (Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle – Articulating) is designed to be the most rugged articulating night vision goggle. The original RNVG earned the well-deserved reputation among civilian and professional users as the toughest night vision goggle available in the industry. The same RNVG-A shares the same engineering with its 7075 aluminum construction.
While most articulating goggles are built with molded polymer housings, the RNVG-A features full 7075 aluminum construction for unsurpassed rigidity and structural strength. All articulation points have been beefed up to increase impact resistance, giving users one tough goggle. Designed and machined at AB NightVision, and finished / assembled at TNVC, the Ruggedized Night Vision Goggle – Articulating is ready to face the toughest customers and harshest environments!
Traditionally, the weakest point in an articulating night vision goggle is the hinge or attachment points from the hinge to the optic pods. These areas account for the majority of catastrophic breakage when a goggle is dropped or hit. Part of this reason is that these areas are polymer and the metal screws that attach the hinge to the polymer optic pods can get ripped out. While there are some seriously impact resistant polymers out there, it’s hard to beat aluminum for strength to weight ratios and the metal screws attach metal to metal. Both the optic pods and bridge in the RNVG-A are machined from solid billet 7075 (a material that is 36% stronger than most common steel), to give end users the strongest articulating goggle on the market (not to mention a little piece of mind). Careful design and advanced machining keep the weight down to 20 oz. with a battery installed.
The RNVG-A utilizes a single CR123 battery, and comes with an auxiliary power connector for use with ANVIS-style auxiliary battery packs such as the AB Night Vision Ground Optimized Battery Pack.
TNVC assembles the RNVG-A with milspec PVS-14 eyepieces and objective lenses. Lightweight RPO optics are available as an upgrade. Controls are simple with push button power and illuminator buttons that are protected from accidental activation.
RNVG-A housings are anodized black, but Cerekote finishes are available. The tan goggles shown in the images are Coyote Cerekote.

Game changer! I have only had mine a few days, but I can tell you these NODs are clear and bright. Of course, I have cleared our house, walked around the neighborhood and have gone out into a cornfield to test them. Not one complaint and can pick up IR really easy. I’m glad I went with TNVC for my first set of NODs and if anyone were to have any trouble, just call up TNVC. Their customer service is superb, Shane got me squared away and like I said, I couldn’t be happier.
