The 4x32 BROWE Tactical Optic (BTO) was designed to include all of the patented technology and internal components used in the production of the 4x32 BROWE Combat Optic. The only difference is the 4x32 BTO is package into a military-grade forged 7075-T6 Aluminum-alloy housing with an integrated MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny mount base featuring an American Defense Mfg. patented QD AUTOLOCK™ Lever System.
Target Light Sensor Technology
The BTO has a photocell located in the optical path providing great sensitivity and accuracy of the target light that is being transmitted through the optic, not ambient lighting. In tactical environments lighting levels are very liquid and constantly changing. When nanoseconds count there is no time to make manual illumination adjustments or search for a poorly illuminated reticle. The Target Light Sensor Technology simplifies the operation and allows the operator to focus on the job at hand.
Single Intituve Control
Gives the operator a simple button designed to control the illumination systems and simulate muscle memory. With a single press of the SIC button the optic will enter Automatic Mode; this will utilize the Target Light Sensor Teechnology by measuring the light transmission and automatically set the reticle illumination to the proper brightness. The second press of the SIC button the optic enters into Manual Mode. This gives the operator complete control of the reticle illuination with the choice of 10 day settings and 3 night vision settings.
Optical Design
The optical design is based on an internally adjustable roof prism optical system with an etched glass reticle. This design was incorporated to maintain a short overall length, a platform that has proven itself successful with currently deployed products. All lenses are precision ground of the finest quality optical glass available and are broad band anti-reflective coated possessing excellent light gathering capabilities even under low light conditions. The glass etched reticle incorporates an LED coupled with microprocessor technology and a photocell to measure target light levels, automatically adjusting the reticle to match target lighting conditions.
