FN LAUNCHES FN PUREVIEW™ AIMING SYSTEM FOR MILITARY AND LAW ENFORCEMENT USERS
Herstal, Belgium – 16 April 2026
FN is introducing the new FN PUREVIEW™ holographic micro red dot sight, a solution engineered specifically for military, law enforcement, and special operations personnel who require split-second precision in challenging environments.
Built to survive the world’s most demanding theatres, the FN PUREVIEW™ is the only military-grade holographic micro red dot sight engineered for absolute frontline reliability. At the core of this capability is the ImageGuide® (1) technology, with its unique nano-structure printed within the glass. It enables holography to be implemented into a lightweight, compact optic with a true holographic red dot. This ensures that frontline personnel can rely on better optical quality, achieving better overall performance.
Designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern multi-role missions, the FN PUREVIEW™ provides operators with a singular, high-performance, exceptionally compact aiming solution that transitions seamlessly across platforms. It can serve as the primary optic for pistols, submachine guns, shotguns, and select carbines, or as a backup sight for sniper systems and magnified platforms.
The FN PUREVIEW™ delivers a free sight picture that remains clear in the harshest conditions. From sub-zero arctic environments to the intense heat of desert operations, the sight eliminates the pain points of hardware failure, allowing the user to focus entirely on the threat at hand rather than the integrity of their optic.
Innovation at your fingertips
At the core of the FN PUREVIEW™ is the exclusive patented ImageGuide® technology, a breakthrough in optical physics that achieves a 25% reduction in housing weight compared with competitors in this class of professional and rugged optics.
Unlike traditional optics, this fully enclosed system utilises a proprietary architecture to eliminate visual distortion. Unparalleled optical clarity is achieved through the use of clear, flat glass, guaranteeing fast, instinctive target acquisition and ensuring the user’s sight picture remains perfect even under the stress of combat.
Its innovation extends to its brightness management system. With automatic brightness adjustment and 14 tactical brightness settings, including dedicated modes for Night Vision Goggles, the FN PUREVIEW™ provides the ultimate in tactical flexibility, allowing the user to operate effectively, even in dark and low-light conditions.
The FN PUREVIEW™ has been designed to maintain a precise zero through extreme kinetic impact; the system has been tested in accordance with MIL-STD-810 and can survive multiple drops up to 1.8 metres (6 feet) onto concrete. Most notably, the FN PUREVIEW™ features a fail-safe reticle design: the aiming point remains fully functional and visible even in the event of lens shattering.
The FN PUREVIEW™ remains submersible up to 35 metres.
Designed differently
Primarily designed for pistols yet versatile enough for rifles, submachine guns and shotguns, this is the only military-grade holographic micro red dot sight of its kind designed and manufactured by a world-renowned Europe-based small arms manufacturer. The FN PUREVIEW™ has successfully passed the most rigorous firing tests using the most powerful ammunition currently in service, without sustaining any damage. And every unit has successfully met FN’s stringent testing standards.
It is the latest innovation in the proven product range of FN® aiming systems, which includes the FN® FCU fire control unit for 40mm LV/MV grenades and the FN ELITY® ballistic calculator for sniper and precision rifles, and spotting scopes. Both are in service with several armies and special forces globally.
The FN PUREVIEW™ inherits a legacy of trusted quality, practical, and easy-to-maintain equipment. It is compatible and can seamlessly integrate with all guns. Additionally, FN is supported by a robust, secure supply chain that meets the most rigorous military and law enforcement compliance standards.
François Legras, VP FN® E-NOVATION, said: “At FN, our innovation is driven by an over 135-year legacy of industrial excellence and an unwavering commitment to those who serve, defend and protect us. The FN PUREVIEW™ is another example of this innovative spirit, being the first holographic sight in this form factor to use a nano-structured glass to guide light. This was driven by a user-first philosophy, combining our bold and accurate approach to the rugged reliability that defence forces and law enforcement need.”
François Legras added: “With its micro-size form factor, the lightweight holographic red dot sight has eliminated the risk of optic aberration and distortion even in extreme low-light conditions or sudden temperature fluctuations. This is a solution designed to empower users, ensuring they have the absolute advantage in the moments that matter most supported by its on-axis aiming design and patented ImageGuide® technology.”
The FN PUREVIEW™ will be showcased at EUROSATORY in Paris (15-19 June). Product information is available here.
SAN DIEGO – 20 April 2026 – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) was selected by the U.S. Navy’s Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) PMA-281 for the Collaborative Autonomy Mission Planning and Debrief (CAMP) project. The initiative will advance mission planning capabilities, AI model management, and autonomy workflows for Autonomous Combat Platforms, culminating in a government sponsored demonstration targeting a 2026 Fleet exercise.
