After the Gulf War, the U.S. Army decided that it wanted more "eyes" on the battlefield.
The Army wanted a compact binocular that would fit in the pocket of a battle dress
uniform (BDU) and be as rugged, have the same magnification and nearly equal the
optical performances as the bigger M22 binoculars. The 7x28 Apache is built to the
same tough standards as the actual M24 mini-binoculars. The new M24 is the first
"pocket-sized" military binocular ever issued on a large scale.
Apache optics are extremely sharp and bright. By using high purity index lenses
and prisms, aligned to perfection, the best possible image quality is achieved.
Exclusive SPARC (Stimulated Penetration Anti-Reflection Coatings) optics eliminate
internal glare and ghost images resulting in very high light transmission at night
or in low light. The anti-corrosive, lightweight aluminum body will pass the military
specification drop/shock test from 6 feet, and withstand a vibration test equal
to 20 gravities of force. Extreme temperature resistance and waterproofing makes
the Navy One and Apache perfect for marine use and other tough outdoor activities.
The
reticle (left view side) allows for easy range or distance estimation.
All Apache binoculars have a five-year limited factory warranty against defects,
fogging, or leakage.
