60mm MORTAR OPTICAL SIGHT
AET-MS-60
The AET-MS-60 sight uses a holographic two-point rapid aiming method. An internal spatial attitude sensor measures the firing angle and direction deviation, and azimuth correction is applied from several parameters. The sight is an innovative approach to spatial measurement and aiming, built for the rapid response and precision strike that modern warfare demands. It mounts on different mortars through a choice of sight brackets and accurately applies range and azimuth correction according to the firing conditions.

KEY FEATURES
- Precision dual-axis adjustment: elevation from 45° to 85° and azimuth correction within ±200 mil.
- Robust optical telescope: 2× magnification and an 11° field of view, with a collimated image for fast, accurate aiming.
- Integrated night illuminator: lights the graduation lines and bubble for night firing.
- Field-ready construction: works from −40 °C to +50 °C and stores from −50 °C to +70 °C.
- User-calibrated accuracy: the sight can be zeroed by the user after sustained use or transport.
- Complete operational kit: supplied with a protective carrying case, illuminator, spares and cleaning tools.
Kit contents
The complete sight kit is packed in a protective carrying case suited to field conditions such as light rain. Each kit includes the sight, an illuminator, an adjustment screwdriver and a lens cloth. Spares such as a bubble level, a spare rubber eye shield and adjustment screws are supplied separately with each kit.
How the sight works
The optical telescope focuses the target image on the reticle through the objective lens and a roof prism. The eyepiece collimates the target image and the reticle into parallel rays, so the operator sees both in focus together. The operator then sets the pitch and azimuth wheels for the target distance to aim quickly and accurately. At night, the illuminator lights the pitch and azimuth graduation lines and the bubble levels.
