EVA

Collins Aerospace Systems has been helping the US Navy and Marine Corps to transition from analog to its new digital Enhanced Visual Acuity (EVA) system

The system is the first to provide digital night vision and display technology that increases flight safety and mission effectiveness for the warfighter. EVA is a digital day and night vision solution that will integrate a helmet-mounted binocular display to provide wider, higher-resolution imagery and improved night vision performance at very-low-light-levels. In addition, the design will minimize head-borne weight to reduce pilot fatigue while increasing comfort and safety.

Dave Schreck, Vice President and General Manager for Military Avionics and Helicopter at Collins Aerospace, said: “Digital night vision is a big step forward in providing enhanced situational awareness to the warfighter, and is a foundation we'll continually build on to ensure mission success. Collins Aerospace is proud to deliver the capability provided by EVA as it will be a significant force multiplier for rotary-wing and tiltrotor aircrews.”

Work on the new developmental contract is taking place at Collins Aerospace facilities in Iowa, California and Massachusetts and will be completed by March 2023.
