Sensors & Night Systems

Sensors & Night Systems explains how you see and fight when the sun isn’t helping you. This section covers FLIR, IR, NVGs and related systems, how they detect or amplify heat and light, how they’re limited by weather and terrain, and how to use them in DCS for target detection, identification and night/low-visibility operations without flying blind.
