This order includes more than 3,800 spectacles to be delivered over the next 18 months, covering both development and full-rate production.
This new ballistic spectacle joins Gentex’s unique USAF Block 3 product line and follows five previously awarded delivery orders under the same contract. In total, these orders amount to 29,400 pieces of state-of-the-art laser protective eyewear.
The Block 3 LEP eyewear provides warfighters with various form factors to suit their mission profiles and replaces the Block 2 spectacles with a higher performance product line. Gentex continues to serve the USAF by providing ocular protection to maintain mission effectiveness and safety.
