Introducing the Wilcox VIPR, Setting a New Standard with Seamless Reticle Transition and Advanced C-UAS Engagement
NEWINGTON, NH, September 22nd, 2026 – Wilcox Industries, a global leader in innovative sighting systems, targeting technologies, and mission ready solutions, is proud to introduce the VIPR™ (Visually Integrated Precision Reticle), a groundbreaking direct view optical sight engineered for today’s rapidly evolving operational environments. Combining the intuitive feel of a holographic sight with advanced digital capability, VIPR delivers unprecedented flexibility, precision, and operator awareness.
Purpose‑Built for Multi‑Domain Requirements
The Wilcox VIPR supports operators across Close Quarters Battle (CQB), mid-range engagements, and Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) missions. A digitally projected reticle enables operators to transition between ballistic-compensating mid-range profiles, CQB reticles, and C-UAS symbology without mechanical adjustments or disruption to their sight picture. The system also incorporates the Dragonslayer Systems™ Rapid Integrated Precision Reticle, which provides enhanced tracking and acquisition, providing the operator the ability to track and disable incoming drones.
The system stores multiple customizable reticles and ballistic profiles. This allows the optic to function across a wide range of weapon platforms, calibers, and ammunition types. The VIPR reduces dependence on analog accessories and mechanical adjusters, decreasing potential failure points and improving operator efficiency. It is simple to operate with a single button nested inside a single scroll wheel, which is designed for reliable use with a gloved hand.
Digital Precision with Applied Ballistics™ Integration
VIPR includes optional rangefinder connectivity that displays real-time range data directly inside the reticle. Integration with Applied Ballistics software provides precise ballistic solutions tailored to specific weapons and ammunition profiles. Dual eye shooting capability preserves depth perception, improves target acquisition speed, and enhances threat recognition under stress.
Engineered for Harsh Environments
VIPR is engineered to withstand weapon shock, water immersion, and extreme temperatures. Key specifications include:
• Clear aperture: 30 mm wide x 27 mm high
• Waterproof rating: 20 meters for up to 2 Hours
• Weight: 343 grams including battery
• Boresight retention: less than 0.5 mrad
The optic mounts to any MIL STD 1913 rail and is compatible with magnifiers, including the Wilcox 3X Magnifier. Its rugged, compact housing maximizes the viewing window while minimizing obstruction.
Mobile App Integration and Mission Customization
The VIPR mobile application gives operators centralized control of mission setup, reticle selection, ballistic profile management, and symbology customization. This digital ecosystem allows the operator to configure the optic quickly for evolving mission demands.
Setting a New Standard in Adaptive Optics
Traditional optics often require multiple accessories, each with its own limitations, configuration requirements, and failure points. VIPR consolidates these functions into one adaptive sighting system, reducing weight, reducing complexity, and decreasing adjustment time. This improves fleet readiness and allows operators to maintain focus on the fight rather than equipment management.
