The AN/AVS-9 is a binocular night vision device developed for and used by aviators in the U.S. military.
The AN/AVS-9 uses the ball detent mounting system. It features no onboard power supply or on/off switch, and instead relies on the connected mount to supply the power through the contacts under the "ball" of the mount.
The four protrusions on each of the objective lenses are intended to allow the user to quickly adjust the focus.
The housing features adjustible interpupillary distance, distance from the eye, and pitch.
Except for two differences, the ocular assemblies are almost identical and in fact compatible with AN/PVS-14 ocular assemblies. The first difference is an absence of a threading for sacrificial lenses or filters. Additionally, the assemblies do not feature an offset for collimation (unconfirmed).
