Óculos de visão noturna (OVN) Enxergar durante a noite é uma vantagem em qualquer situação, uma vez que a escuridão confere maior descrição para o helicóptero e a sua tripulação, garantindo o efeito surpresa, aumentando a sua segurança e dificultando que qualquer pessoa possa identificar visualmente a sua posição.
