To test out \u00adwhether the Corps wanted to equip all of its grunts with the device, it first bought 1,300 systems and \u00adfielded them to two infantry battalions over the past year to get testing and use feedback, said Roberto Gonzalez, team lead for combat optics at SysCom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That included Marines with 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines, embarked with the 26th Marine \u00adExpeditionary Unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not all infantry will get the goggles this year; the 14,000 devices are expected to roll out to units through 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army began fielding its own binocular night \u00advision goggle in 2019, called the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binocular. That version also includes a Rapid Target Acquisition software that connects the goggle to a camera mounted on the weapon for multiple weapon sight
