The Archer TSA-11LRF Thermal Imaging Sighting System is an advanced targeting device designed for precision shooting in challenging conditions, particularly where visibility is limited, such as complete darkness, smoke, fog, or dense vegetation. It is optimized for medium-caliber rifles such as .308 and 7.62, but is also robust enough to handle the recoil of higher calibers, including up to .338.
This sight is primarily used for detecting, observing, and targeting heat-contrast objects, making it ideal for marksmen engaging targets at distances of up to 0.6 miles. It excels in both daytime and nighttime operations, thanks to its thermal imaging capabilities, which allow for high accuracy in adverse weather or light conditions. With its powerful detection range of 2405 yards, the system allows shooters to spot targets from a considerable distance. Once detected, targets can be recognized at 600 yards and positively identified at 390 yards, providing excellent clarity across varied shooting scenarios. The objective lens, measuring 50mm focal length, enhances the sight’s ability to gather thermal data, ensuring precise detection and recognition.
Key features include an integrated laser rangefinder that measures the distance to a target with precision, and a ballistic calculator that automatically applies the necessary corrections based on the weapon and ammunition used. This ensures optimal accuracy regardless of the environmental conditions. The sight also has sensitivity settings for its detector, allowing customization based on the situation, and offers multiple color schemes for image enhancement.The digital zoom options (2x, 3x, 4x, and 6x) further assist in identifying and engaging targets at various ranges, while built-in features like a compass, accelerometer, and weather station provide real-time feedback for windage and adjustment compensation. A built-in video recording module allows users to capture footage of their targeting sessions, stored directly on the device’s flash memory.
Additionally, the Archer TSA-11LRF features manual and automatic calibration of its detector, and the automatic impact point prediction helps the shooter make precise shots with confidence.
