NATO Supply Class 5855 is a specific classification within NATO Supply Group 58, which is dedicated to Communication, Detection, and Coherent Radiation Equipment.
NATO Supply Class 5855 specifically focuses on Night Vision Equipment that deals with emitted and reflected radiation. This class includes various types of equipment used for night vision purposes, such as night vision goggles, scopes, cameras, and other devices that enhance visibility in low-light or dark conditions.
The equipment in this class utilizes emitted and reflected radiation to capture and amplify available light, allowing users to see clearly in situations where natural light is limited. This can be particularly useful in military operations, surveillance, law enforcement, and other applications where visibility in the dark is crucial.
Night vision equipment in this class may employ different technologies, such as image intensification, thermal imaging, or a combination of both. These technologies enable the detection and amplification of emitted and reflected radiation, including infrared and other forms of non-visible light.
It's important to note that NATO Supply Class 5855 is specifically focused on night vision equipment and its applications related to emitted and reflected radiation. Other types of communication, detection, and coherent radiation equipment may fall under different supply classes within NATO Supply Group 58.
If you require more specific information or details about a particular type of night vision equipment within this supply class, please let me know.
Includes Sighting and Observation Devices, Target Detectors and Locators, Remote Viewing Systems utilizing heat radiation emitted from object(s), associated Radiation Sources, Image Converters and Image Intensifiers, Optical Cells and other components designed for Night Vision Equipment. Holders and Lens used with Infrared Equipment are also included in this FSC.
Excludes Optical Sighting devices which incorporate both day and night viewing characteristics within an integral unit for fire control purpose, nonnight vision type items designed for use with guided missiles, communications, or laboratory equipment, and Optical Elements, such as Lens, Prisms, Windows.
Note-Excludes oscillator items which should be classified in FSC 5955 or 5963; fiber optic items which should be classified in Group 60; electronic modules as defined under Class 5963; and electrical cable, cord and wire assemblies, harnesses and sets, related to FSG 58 equipment (see FSC 5995). In Group 58, more than in any other group, it frequently happens that the same name is listed as an index entry in each of several classes. In addition, that name may also appear as an entry in groups other than 58. Each such entry refers to a distinctly different part or assembly, even though the different items have the same name. The listing of the same names in two or more classes indicates that, in one form, the part or assembly covered by the name is applicable to the equipment covered by one class, and in another form is applicable to the equipment covered by another class. For example, the item name CODER, AUDIO FREQUENCY is applicable to two distinctly different assemblies, one of which has an application in cryptologic equipment, covered by Class 5810, and the other in radar equipment covered by Class 5840. Consequently the name CODER, AUDIO FREQUENCY is an entry under each of the two classes. When an item identification bears a name which is indexed under more than one class of Group 58, or in Group 58 and in some other group, the item will be classified in the same class as its next higher assembly in the manner described in the Federal Logistics Information System (FLIS) Procedures Manual, DoD 4100.39-M. Also excluded from this group are data transmission and communications equipment such as terminals, sensors and other devices designed for use with a configuration of ADPE.
