Team TNVC Training Community,

Nightfighters…we wanted to launch this training newsletter a little early, some exciting news coming up.

We are opening a new training venue up in the Northeast corner of the US in 2025. The Ben Franklin Range in Templeton, PA has welcomed us with a host set up and we will be cracking open the 2025 training season with our first class of the year there. Link to their world class facility:

https://benfranklinrange.com/

https://progunvegas.com/

We are taking our classes in Oklahoma at Badlands Tactical, Grandfield OK to once a year for 2025. Moving this series of classes to the fall and once annually should allow folks in the Southwest to look long range and get into some great training at this great facility.

https://badlandstactical.org/

Next, Rev-Tac in Jackson NE has expanded their training footprint a bit, so we are going to expand our offerings up there with them. A new facility with rooms/hallways/classrooms allows us to expand, offering Nightfighter 201 in the upper Midwest. https://www.rev-tac.com/

TIP: If you do not have equipment, but still want to train, we offer limited quantities of night vision rentals at each venue.  These offerings sell out quickly, so sign up early if you intend to rent gear.  Complete information about the TNVC rental gear program can be found here: https://tnvc.com/shop/tnvc-night-fighter-rental/

Law Enforcement Training Programs

Do you know that in addition to open enrollment training, TNVC also conducts Law Enforcement specific training?    Our Law Enforcement training team’s diverse real-world experience allows us to provide a flexible and adaptable curriculum to provide specialized training that is safe, realistic, and practical to Law Enforcement agencies with different levels of night vision knowledge and experience.  Our training team will work with your agency to help tailor our instruction to meet your requirements and needs.  TNVC can provide instruction ranging from “unboxing” and familiarization up to building on already existing night vision skillsets. 

If it is not possible for an agency to host TNVC for a contract class, there is still an opportunity for officers to get the NVG training that they are seeking.    TNVC also conducts a Law Enforcement Night Fighter 101* class.  These classes closely follow the format and instruction method of our civilian “open enrollment” classes.   However, by having a student base comprised solely of Law Enforcement professionals, this gives us the freedom to address certain topics in class that would not be relevant or appropriate in an open enrollment class.  Time can be spent discussing things such as equipment procurement assistance, legality and case law pertaining to night vision, use of force considerations, etc.  Additionally, these courses will occur during the week to hopefully make it easier for LEOs to attend.

If you are interested in TNVC’s Law Enforcement Training program or hosting a LE Night Fighter 101 please contact training@TNVC.com or for more information https://tnvc.com/law-enforcement-night-vision-training/

GALLS Revolutionizes Uniform Management for Small and Rural Agencies with Galls Customized Uniforms™ (GCU)


GALLS® Revolutionizes Uniform Management for Small and Rural Agencies with Galls Customized Uniforms™ (GCU)

Designed to address the unique challenges faced by small and rural agencies, Galls Customized Uniforms™ offers a free seamless, all-in-one platform for designing, managing, and ordering customized uniforms shipped within seven to 10 days.

Lexington, Ken. (August 2024)GALLS, LLC®, the nation’s leading supplier serving America’s public safety and military professionals, is excited to announce the launch of Galls Customized Uniforms™ (GCU), the first digital uniform ordering solution built specifically for small and rural public safety agencies, set to transform the way these agencies manage their uniform needs. Designed to address the unique challenges faced by these agencies, GCU offers a seamless, all-in-one platform for designing, managing, and ordering customized uniforms.

Almost half (46 percent) of all local police departments (11,800) employ fewer than ten full-time equivalent sworn officers (Bureau of Justice 11-22 NCJ 305187). Small and rural public safety agencies often struggle with the time-consuming and frustrating process of ordering customized uniforms. Chiefs and their staff spend countless hours navigating uniform manufacturers’ call centers, dealing with long lead times, and managing the logistics of local uniform customization. These inefficiencies not only lead to frustration and higher costs but also take public safety heroes away from their primary mission of protecting the community.

GCU is designed to eliminate these pain points by simplifying and streamlining the entire uniform management process, offering small and rural agencies a comprehensive, in-house solution that eliminates the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors. With GCU, command staff can now fully customize, manage, and order uniforms directly from GALLS, ensuring that their officers are always equipped with the best gear to serve their communities. This cost effective and user-friendly solution will save agencies valuable time and effort.

“At GALLS, we understand the unique challenges faced by small and rural agencies, and we are committed to supporting them in every way we can,” said Katherine Pesik, Vice President, Digital Products at GALLS. “Galls Customized Uniforms is a testament to our dedication to public safety heroes, providing a free and efficient solution that saves time, reduces complexity, and ensures that officers can focus on what matters most – protecting their communities.”

Galls Customized Uniforms offers a suite of features designed to meet the specific needs of small and rural agencies. With this platform, agencies can easily set up and manage custom uniform profiles, tailoring uniforms for every rank and unit using a curated selection of top-selling styles. The personalization process allows departments to digitize and save custom patches or emblems for future orders, ensuring consistency and professionalism across the board.

Ordering is made simple, with officers able to place orders for their fully customized uniforms with just a few clicks and have them shipped within seven to 10 days. Galls also guarantee the availability of in-stock uniforms from trusted brands, ensuring that orders are fulfilled quickly and accurately.

Best of all, this digital solution is provided at no cost, making it a budget-friendly option for small and rural departments.

Beta testers of the Galls Customized Uniforms platform have praised its intuitive design, ease of use, and the overall improvement it brings to the uniform ordering process. One tester noted, “I truly appreciate that Galls continues to help small agencies and supports police even on small orders. I completely understand that there isn’t a large profit to be made from small agencies but GALLS continues to enhance their customer service.”

Another shared, “Navigation was very intuitive, easy to utilize.” The platform received high marks for overall satisfaction (9.30), ease of navigation (9.60), and visual appeal of the uniform builder (9.70).

Galls Customized Uniforms is now available to all small and rural public safety agencies looking to transform and simplify their uniform management process. To learn more and start designing your agency’s uniforms, visit https://www.galls.com/pages/meet-gcu.

About GALLS®:

Galls® proudly serves America’s Public Safety and Military professionals with the broadest selection of uniforms, equipment, and solutions along with relentless service.

Japan Buys Two SeaGuardians from GA-ASI

clip_image002

 

 

JAPAN BUYS TWO SEAGUARDIANS FROM GA-ASI

SAN DIEGO – 15 August 2024 – The Japan Coast Guard (JCG) has signed a contract for the purchase of two SeaGuardian® Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) from General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI), scheduled for delivery in 2025. This follows JCG’s ongoing Company-Owned, Contractor-Operated agreement with GA-ASI for operating SeaGuardian, which began in April 2022. 

“Since JCG started operating SeaGuardians, they have been used for various JCG missions including supporting search and rescue and disaster response specifically during the 7.6 magnitude earthquake early this year near the Noto Peninsula of Ishikawa Prefecture and maritime surveillance during the 2023 G-7 Summit in Hiroshima, and the system has performed efficiently and effectively,” said GA-ASI CEO Linden Blue.

SeaGuardian is a medium-altitude, long-endurance RPA system that can fly for 24 hours or more, depending on the configuration.

GA-ASI has strengthened its Maritime Wide Area Surveillance (MWAS) for Japan with Optix+, which gathers information from the SeaGuardian sensors, as well as other data sources, displaying the full picture of surveillance information for its operator. This functionality makes it easy to task and direct its Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) information in real time. GA-ASI’s Optix+ software suite rapidly correlates and exploits collected data into an easily shared common operational picture. Having multi-source correlated data enables automatic detection of anomalous behaviors over waters.

About GA-ASI

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI), an affiliate of General Atomics, is a leading designer and manufacturer of proven, reliable RPA systems, radars, and electro-optic and related mission systems, including the Predator® RPA series and the Lynx® Multi-mode Radar. With more than eight million flight hours, GA-ASI provides long-endurance, mission-capable aircraft with integrated sensor and data link systems required to deliver persistent situational awareness. The company also produces a variety of sensor control/image analysis software, offers pilot training and support services, and develops meta-material antennas.

XS Sights Introduces DXT2 PRO Series Night Sights

Fort Worth, Texas (August 14, 2024) – XS® Sights is pleased to introduce DXT2 PRO Series night sights for self-defense. This improved Big Dot line offers increased durability and corrosion resistance due to the upgraded tritium lamps and BlackNitride surface finish. The PRO Series is also the first XS Big Dot available with a green glow dot front sight which delivers high contrast in bright light while glowing extremely bright in low light.

The DXT2 PRO Series sights offer the same exceptional benefits of the original XS Big Dots with a large, easy to see tritium front sight with dual-illumination technology for high visibility in low light and a rear, tritium stripe for fast and easy vertical alignment. The overall design and sheer size of the dot at 0.188” drives focus to the front sight for lightning-fast target acquisition.

“The DXT2 PRO Series sights are our most rugged night sights to date, and we’re excited to offer a green front sight for the first time in the Big Dot,” said Jeff King, Marketing Manager, XS Sights. “Green is a great option because it offers high contrast in both bright and low light which is key because we know defensive situations are unpredictable and happen in a wide variety of lighting conditions.”

Made with American materials and CNC machined in Fort Worth, Texas, the DXT2 PRO Series is designed for defensive shooting and will help get you on target faster in high-stress situations.

Retail Price: $153.99

The DXT2 PRO Series is currently available in the following models:

Keeping up with SFCT!

A Note From Our Executive Director

The Trust is thrilled to embark on an exciting 2024 fundraising season, with some of our most beloved annual events approaching. Our gatherings are always enhanced by the presence of SF families, so we invite you to check out the upcoming event dates and consider joining us!

Throughout the year, we collaborate closely with leadership across the Regiment to ensure our programs effectively address the needs of the Warrior Family. We take pride in our ability to adapt and provide meaningful services to both the Groups and SF Families.

In this edition, you’ll find information about the COL Martha Raye Award Gala and this year’s recipients. We warmly invite the community to join us for this inaugural gala in Fayetteville at the Botanical Gardens on August 29th, where we will honor the extraordinary spouses who offer invaluable support. Additionally, we are excited to partner again with the “Passing of the Yarbrough” camp for SF Kids this year, which promises to be bigger and better—stay tuned for more updates!

We also offer Side by Side events for Soldiers looking to reconnect with fellow Green Berets, allowing them to rediscover the reasons behind their commitment. Spouses, keep an eye out for the next Mix & Mingle in your area — a fantastic opportunity to enjoy an evening with peers, strengthen your circle, or simply indulge in some well-deserved “me” time.

Whether you are part of the SF Family or the SFCT Donor Family, we sincerely appreciate your support and interest in our mission and efforts!

Sincerely,

Jodi Burns

Programs & Community Giving

SFCT has the privilege to host this year’s COL Martha Raye Award Recipients on August 29th at the Cape Fear Botanical Gardens in Fayetteville, NC! This award recognizes the spouses’ volunteerism within the Special Forces Community! Thank you ladies for all of your wonderful support of the Regiment!

We are so excited to announce the 2024-2025 STRIVE Scholarship Recipients! We are honored to be a part of their education goals!

SFCT was blessed to hear the personal testimony of SGT(R) Lee McKinney, who is 98 years young! He spoke to his time fighting in World War II and the Korean War, where he was captured by the Chinese and held as a Prisoner of War for 28 months.

SGT McKinney is one of the few remaining ex-POWs our nation has from these days. His brief was invaluable to the Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) School students as he provided personal insight into life as a POW.

Their company started out with over 200 soldiers when they came under attack. The Chinese pushed their position back 20 miles that night and left them with 26 survivors, of which 13 were taken as POWs. Ironically, the day that he was captured was supposed to have been his wedding day. He spoke of brainwashing, confinement and the death that ensued over the next couple of years during his time in the far east. He made it pretty clear his determination to get home to “a girl he came to be pretty fond of” kept his mind in the fight. She waited for his safe return for over two years. He was finally able to marry that girl when he got home and they spent 64 wonderful years together!

SFCT realizes how important our Veterans and their Families are to the Special Forces Community. Their shared wisdom furthers the knowledge of the incoming soldiers and keeps their veteran heritage alive. We are committed to supporting their legacy, ensuring their welfare, and providing assistance wherever and whenever possible.

SFCT was privileged to support the brief with SGT McKinney, flying him and his daughter in from Amarillo, Texas and providing lodging assistance to them during their trip to North Carolina and Camp Mackall. It was an absolute pleasure meeting them and being able to spend some time listening to his experience. Thank you for your service to this country!

GA-ASI’s MQ-9B SeaGuardian Showcased at RIMPAC 2024

MQ-9B SkyGuardian | General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc.

GA-ASI’S MQ-9B SEAGUARDIAN® SHOWCASED AT RIMPAC 2024

Sonobuoy Dispensing System and LRASM Among the New Capabilities Featured

SAN DIEGO – 14 August 2024 – With the completion of the U.S. Navy’s Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) flight operations on July 28, 2024, the MQ-9B SeaGuardian® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) supplied by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., self-deployed back to its home base in El Mirage, Calif., but only after introducing an array of new capabilities. The flight home followed close to 100 flight hours supporting RIMPAC 2024 over the four-week exercise in and around the Hawaiian Islands.

RIMPAC is the world’s largest international maritime exercise. RIMPAC 2024 featured 29 nations, 40 surface ships, three submarines, 14 national land forces, more than 150 aircraft, and 25,000 personnel.

SeaGuardian provided real-time Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) data feeds to the U.S. Pacific Fleet Command Center using Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) parametrics and full-motion video to the watch floor and intelligence centers for real-time dynamic tasking — just as it did for the RIMPAC 2022 exercise. This year, SeaGuardian delivered some new features and capabilities, including Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) targeting and a new Sonobuoy Dispensing System (SDS) to support its Anti-Submarine Warfare capability. SeaGuardian was configured with a prototype SDS pod capable of deploying 10 A-size sonobuoys per pod (SeaGuardian can carry up to four SDS pods or up to 40 sonobuoys) and the SeaVue Multi-role radar from Raytheon, an RTX business. Upon dispensing, the sonobuoys were successfully monitored and controlled by the SeaGuardian’s onboard Sonobuoy Monitoring and Control System (SMCS).

SeaGuardian is a maritime derivative of the MQ-9B SkyGuardian® and remains the first UAS that offers multi-domain Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Targeting (ISR&T) as an internal payload that can search the ocean’s surface and depths in support of Fleet Operations. At RIMPAC 2024, SeaGuardian showcased all operational payloads, which includes the SeaVue, SNC’s Electronic Support Measures (ESM) solution, an Automatic Identification System (AIS), and a self-contained Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) system.

SeaGuardian’s multi-domain capabilities allow it to flex from mission to mission and pass real-time sensor data directly to the Fleet. For RIMPAC 2024, SeaGuardian added Link 16 Joint Range Extension Application Protocol (JREAP) “C” (internet protocol) and an integrated Minotaur Mission System to provide real-time sensor data for the various Maritime Operations Centers, ships, and aircraft with Minotaur nodes.

“For RIMPAC, the MQ-9B effectively passed ISR&T information to various surface and air units, such as the Nimitz-class carrier USS Carl Vinson, Guided Missile Destroyers (DDGs), Littoral Combat Ships (LCS), frigates, patrol boats, P-8s, P-3s, and numerous other U.S. and foreign units that took part in the exercise,” said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander.

On July 31, 2024, SeaGuardian self-deployed back to GA-ASI’s Desert Horizon Flight Operations Facility in El Mirage, Calif.

Iranian Mohajer 10, AI generated

Iran is currently exhibiting its self-manufactured long-range attack drone Mohajer-10 at the ARMY 2024 International Military-Technical Forum exhibition in Russia. This is reportedly the first time the Mohajer-10 was publicly displayed outside of Iran, which is claimed to be the most advanced Iranian-produced UAV as of late.

The exhibit, which will run until August 14th, also contains Iranian air defense systems and radars, ballistic missiles, and batteries for military applications, according to Interesting Engineering.

Iranian news outlets report that the Mohajer-10 UAV (translation – Immigrant-10), which was first unveiled in August 2023, has a range of 2,000 km, and has a single-flight duration of up to 24 hours. Further, It can carry a payload of up to 300 kg, a significant advancement from previous models.

In terms of uses, this UAV can be used for both non-lethal missions such as reconnaissance operations, as well as lethal attacks. It strikes by dropping bombs or missiles at its intended target and then is capable of returning back home, taking advantage of its impressive flight duration. This is unlike the Iranian-made Shahed UAVs, which are suicide UAVs made to explode when hitting a target. The exact levels of impact the Mohajer 10 can accomplish are yet to be completely known.

The showcasing of the Mohajer-10 UAV comes at an interesting timing in relation to the recent threats made by Iran to attack Israel in response to Israel’s alleged assassination of Hamas Leader Ismail Haniya on Iranian soil on July 31st. The exhibition in Russia also raises concerns for Ukraine, as Iran has been criticized in the past for supplying weapons to Russia to be used in its war with Ukraine, including the earlier Mohajer-6 variant. Iran continues to deny these claims, despite Ukraine revealing they captured this Iranian-made UAV after being used by Russian Forces.

ATA Partners with NSSF’s First Shots Program

First Shots Partner

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is pleased to announce that the Amateur Trapshooting Association (ATA) has become an official partner of NSSF’s First Shots® program, the introductory and refresher target-shooting program made available through host target-shooting ranges and gun clubs across the country.

ATA, the governing body for the sport of American-style trapshooting, works to grow participation to increase interest in trapshooting through programs such as its AIM National Trapshooting Day and satellite competitions associated with its widely known Grand American World Trapshooting Tournament conducted annually in Sparta, Ill. ATA recognizes the ability of NSSF’s First Shots program to reach a whole new audience.

“We are grateful to ATA for joining with NSSF’s First Shots to help introduce newcomers and novices to recreational shooting, particularly to the clay-target sport of trapshooting,” said Zach Snow, NSSF Director, Member Development. “Being on a trap field with friends is one of recreational shooting’s most enjoyable pastimes, and NSSF and ATA want more people to have that experience. Americans in growing numbers are eager to learn about firearm ownership, and First Shots has been designed to assist them by providing education in the classroom and experience on the firing line.”

By providing educational experiences that are safe, fun and memorable, First Shots partners and host ranges are having great success in attracting first-timers, further engaging new gun owners and in reactivating lapsed participants. Surveys show that more than 43 percent of First Shots participants become target-shooting enthusiasts, demonstrating that First Shots is fulfilling a need for providing a supportive environment to those who want to know more about recreational shooting and firearm ownership.

“We’re proud to partner with First Shots, which has introduced thousands of people to recreational shooting and continues to attract participants of all ages. As a dedicated partner of First Shots, we’re all in on opening up the wide world of recreational shooting opportunities—particularly trapshooting—that can provide a lifetime of enjoyment. We hope more people will discover trapshooting thanks to First Shots,” said Liz Lloyd, ATA Marketing Director and AIM Coordinator.

NSSF invites other organizations associated with the shooting sports and industry to consider becoming a First Shots partner. The benefits to the organization and to the future of the shooting sports are considerable. Learn how to become a First Shots partner today by contacting Zach Snow at 203-426-1320 ext. 224.

Should You Get An FBI UPIN?

Should you get an FBI UPIN? overlayed on US Capitol building

In the latest ASA Policy Update we take a detailed dive into the background check process to explain why some buyers may want to consider getting an FBI Unique Personal Identification Number (UPIN) by submitting a Voluntary Appeal File (VAF). For applicants that are commonly delayed when buying firearms it may speed up your transfer times.

We also get an update on our Federal lawsuit in Illinois to legalize suppressors. The lawsuit, backed by Silencer Shop, with additional support from Elevated Silence, Rugged Suppressors, and SilencerCo, could see a decision from Judge Dugan as soon as next week!

NSSF Donates $100,000 to Massachusetts GOAL for Challenge to New Gun Control Law

NSSF

August 13, 2024

NSSF Donates $100,000 to Massachusetts GOAL for Challenge to New Gun Control Law

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, donated $100,000 to Massachusetts Gun Owners’ Action League (GOAL) to support a legal challenge to the new onerous gun control law that was passed by the state legislature and signed by Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey. The donation will support the legal fight against the hulking gun control law that severely restricts lawful firearm ownership and creates a bureaucratic maze of licensing requirements that have still yet to be defined.

The law, H. 4885 – also known now as Chapter 135 – is clearly unconstitutional. The legislation was drafted in secret, even denying access to all Massachusetts lawmakers. There was no input from NSSF or other firearm owner advocacy groups as the final draft was crafted behind closed doors.

“Massachusetts is known as a birthplace of the American Revolution, but these lawmakers have turned their backs to rights that belong to the people and instead are instituting an Orwellian state over the citizens of the Commonwealth,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “The fight to protect liberty and individual rights begins anew and we are confident that when federal courts apply scrutiny to this law, it will be relegated to the trash bin where it belongs. Massachusetts lawmakers are failing to defend the rights of the people and instead are kowtowing to the special-interest gun control machine that funds their perpetual re-elections.”

“Without a doubt Chapter 135, we now call The Devil’s Snare, represents the greatest attack on civil rights in modern United States history,” said Jim Wallace Executive Director of Gun Owners’ Action League. “For over a year, the supporters of this law have violated and suspended nearly every rule regarding an open legislative process. The final drafting of the bill was done in secret and the final language was not provided to the public, or legislators, until the night before the vote. Clearly the supporters understood the unconstitutional language would never survive the light of day and serious scrutiny. We would like to thank NSSF for helping us fight back against this historic attack on the Bill of Rights.”

Gov. Healey said the U.S. Supreme Court’s Bruen decision, which found New York’s firearm permitting scheme to be unconstitutional and chastised lower courts for creating fabricated legal “tests” to decide if gun control laws passed Constitutional muster, posed a “grave danger to Americans as they go about their daily lives in public spaces.” State legislators responded to Gov. Healey’s demand for action and delivered a 116-page bill that expanded the state’s already strict ban on Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs), placed new restrictions on where law-abiding concealed carry permit holders could exercise their right to armed self-defense and mandated new standards and licensing requirements for citizens seeking a License to Carry.

Nothing in the new law addresses criminals or holds criminals accountable for their actions. Instead, Massachusetts’ H. 4885 – or Chapter 135 – introduces new barriers to lawful firearm ownership and the exercise of the rights to keep and bear arms, which are expressly protected by the U.S. Constitution.



About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.
