Crafted for effortless integration, the HISS-HD clip-on thermal weapon scope readily attaches to any MIL-STD-1913 rail interface positioned in front of an existing sight. HISS-HD is compatible with diverse day optics and weapon platforms, providing long-range vision and a high-definition display that offers remarkably clear visuals for snipers and machine gun teams.
