Every Feature, Machined To Last
If you’re building your own system, or moving tubes from an older device, the Nighthawk-MG is Steele Industries’ flagship articulating housing and may be your best option. It’s machined from 7075 aluminium, backed by a lifetime housing warranty, and designed to take whatever tubes and optics you fit to it now and in the future.
It accepts both MX-11769 and MX-10160 tube formats, and standard PVS-14 style optics, so you have room to upgrade without changing platform. The full feature set is built in: manual gain, an onboard IR illuminator, adjustable IPD stops, independent pod shut-off and an auxiliary power port for an external battery pack.
Who it’s for
- Users building or rebuilding a binocular from their own tubes and optics
- Anyone upgrading from a monocular who wants a long-term platform
