THE WILCOX RAID Xe: PROVIDING OPERATORS WITH FLEXIBILITY & THE ULTIMATE BEAM CLARITY
The RAID Xe (Enhanced Ruggedized Aiming/Illumination Device) is the culmination of years of operator feedback and leading-edge technical advancements. The result is a compact, ergonomic aiming and illumination device with a uniquely rich feature set that achieves the highest standard of optical performance. The RAID Xe sets itself apart as an aiming and illumination device by providing the operator with on-the-fly flexibility with the highest quality laser technology.
FLEXIBLE ILLUMINATION
Operators moving from short range to long range require flexibility while illuminating areas and potential targets. The power steps native to the RAID Xe allow fast, on the fly IR range adjustment. The ergonomic illuminator wheel allows easy rapid adjustment of the NIR illuminator beam divergence giving the operator control to focus IR light in a tight area or illuminate a large area.
Additionally, the RAID Xe is equipped with a 40-degree LED Room illuminator for close quarter missions. This allows room illumination without blooming. This feature allows end users to check and secure hallways and rooms, while not over saturating these specific areas with lasers. See it in action!
ULTIMATE BEAM CLARITY
Light quality is always a discriminating factor in operator reaction time and identification. More than any other electro-optics manufacturer, Wilcox has led in the development and delivery of VSCEL technology. The RAID Xe’s variable NIR illuminator sets a high standard for optical performance for an aiming and illumination device.
By advancing and pushing the capabilities of VCSEL laser technology beyond our competitors, the RAID Xe provides the operator with a true advantage over other sighting systems. Achieving this high level of beam clarity improves both situational awareness and on-the-move reaction time allowing for optimal combat identification and targeting.
CONCLUSION
Military and law enforcement including special forces, SWAT and security personnel, face an array of unique challenges in low or no light environments where quick target acquisition and identification are required. The Wilcox RAID Xe represents a complete, robust solution for any operator requiring a high degree of awareness, flexibility and accuracy to ensure mission success.
