1.2 Key Attributes
The EXPS3 HWS is a lightweight, non-magnifying, optical sight designed for close to
mid range engagements. It allows very fast target acquisition and engagement at
short ranges while providing aiming capability out to 300 meters equal to or better
than iron sights.
The major combat advantage of the HWS is extremely rapid reticle-on-target acquisi-
tion. As quickly as a target is identified, the holographic reticle can be superimposed
on the target. The sight allows operators to maintain eye contact on the target and to
place the holographic reticle onto the target without shifting focus. Operators can
quickly acquire the target and reticle in the same focal plane for fast and accurate shot
placement.
The HWS appears to project the holographic image of a reticle on the target plane.
The sight can be used as a bright open reticle image or a fine dot which is limited only
by the acuity of the shooter’s eye. The heads up display window allows an undis-
torted and unrestricted view of the target.
The EXPS3 is offered with one of the following (3) reticle options (see fig. 1):
• 0- 68 minute ring with vertical and horizontal stadia and a 1 MOA aiming dot.
• 2- 68 minute ring with vertical and horizontal stadia and (2) 1 MOA aiming dots
• 4- 60 minute ring with vertical and horizontal stadia and (4) 1 MOA aiming dots
