Description
A more advanced version of
the telescopic sight is the electronic sight. This confers the same
benefits as the telescopic sight, but adds 20 meters to the short
range for aimed fire instead of only 15. In addition, its image
enhancement and light amplification characteristics allow firing at
night. This second feature is not limited to aimed fire only,
although un-aimed fire using the night sight feature will not have
the range bonus of the system.
Some electronic sights also simplify the use of
grenade launchers and include a laser rangefinder. The rangefinder
allows the character to measure accurate ranges to distant points,
and can be used to designate targets for direct or indirect fire by
target-designated weapons. Electronic sights may be fitted to
pistols.
