The 1PN33 is a night vision device of soviet origin, it's some also referred to as BN-1. It can sometimes be found on the civilian market as "baigish-12". It has a magnification of 3.2x and a field of view of 9°. The device is powered by an accumulator that supplies 8.8 to 3.3 volts. Unlike the later 1PN50, the device is a true binocular. [1] The device was supplied with PRP-4 artillery reconnaissance vehicles.[2] The device uses V-8 generation-1/0+ image intensifiers. The housing and optics of the device were produced by KOMZ. It was supplied to numerous Warsaw pact armies, and is therefore very common on the surplus market.
