GENERAL
The Driver's Vision Enhancer (DVE) is a through-the-hatch periscope for armored vehicles. The DVE enables the
operator to drive at night under Blackout (BO) conditions. It also can be used to observe around the vehicle at
night. The DVE sensor assembly uses circuitry to increase brightness of low light levels. The DVE sensor
assembly is connected by cable to the DVE viewer assembly inside the vehicle so the user can see a much
brighter, green-colored picture of surrounding landscape. For operation and maintenance, refer to
TM 11-5855-311-12&P-2 (WP 0131).
