The operation's success is attributed to meticulous planning and execution, with a focus on target neutralization and identity confirmation via DNA analysis.

The NEXTORCH WL-60 is a rifle-mounted light and laser designator featuring an aluminum body, multiple switch options (onboard and tape switch), and dual battery compatibility (CR123A or 18650). While its 700 lumens output is moderate, it boasts a high 25,600 Candela for excellent throw. The reviewer positions it as a valuable, cost-effective trainer for developing active aiming skills, particularly for those aspiring to use night vision equipment, and also for CQB practice.

This video demonstrates a practical field-zeroing technique for IR laser aiming devices using their visible green laser counterpart. The method involves slaving the visible laser to an already zeroed optic's reticle on a known target, allowing for a quick setup without live fire. This technique is presented as a viable solution for rapidly deploying night vision equipment onto a new firearm in field conditions.

This video satirically depicts the perceived roles of service dogs across different military branches, culminating in a humorous portrayal of a Space Force handler with a tactical rifle.

This guide details the installation and operational considerations for the Unity Axon Sync switch, particularly when paired with a SureFire Vampire light and Steiner OTAL-C laser. It highlights the intended function, potential ergonomic issues like accidental constant-on activation under recoil, and the importance of laser device compatibility. The review emphasizes that while the Axon Sync offers a compact solution, users might find dedicated laser modules more reliable for certain setups.

This review examines the DI Optical HLAD-3G, a civilian-legal IR laser aiming module derived from South Korea's military MLAD unit. While boasting a compact form factor, durable crossbolt mount, and integrated emitters, its civilian power output is significantly reduced. The reviewer highlights its high price point ($1700) compared to competitors like the Holosun LS321 (under $700) and notes performance limitations, particularly an uneven IR illuminator pattern and weak visible laser, making it difficult to recommend at full price.

This guide details the installation and features of the Holosun LE117IR, a standalone IR laser designator. It highlights the 'Elite' titanium construction, three-mode switch, and compatibility with tape switches. The review emphasizes its performance parity with the Steiner DBAL I2 9007 and its suitability for rifles not primarily dedicated to night vision, noting the bore-aligned emitter's zeroing advantages and potential iron sight obstruction. Instruction comes from Hop, an experienced tactical gear reviewer.
