Essex Junction, Vermont – Revision Military, a global leader in advanced protective eyewear solutions, is proud to announce that its innovative SlingShot ballistic sunglasses have been added to the U.S. Army’s Authorized Protective Eyewear List (APEL®) and assigned a National Stock Number (NSN).
This milestone further strengthens Revision’s position as a trusted supplier of mission-critical eye protection and expands access for Soldiers to cutting-edge eyewear designed to meet the demands of today’s operational environments.
A New Standard for Military Eyewear
The SlingShot is not just another ballistic sunglass. With its featherweight, browless frame design, the SlingShot delivers superior performance and comfort for extended wear in dynamic environments.
- Unmatched Anti-Fog Performance – The browless design maximizes airflow for exceptional venting, while Revision’s industry-leading OcuMax® anti-fog coating keeps lenses clear in the most challenging conditions.
- Rapid Lens Swapping – Innovative frame mechanism allows Soldiers to quickly change lenses in the field to adapt to changing light conditions.
- Equipment Compatibility – Thin, extendable temple arms ensure seamless integration with helmets and communication systems.
- Optional I-Vis® Lens Technology – For users seeking enhanced contrast and color recognition, Revision’s I-Vis lens technology is available in six tints optimized for specific environments. Note: I-Vis lenses are not part of the APEL-approved configuration and are offered separately for those who want additional capabilities.
- Ballistic Protection – Exceeds stringent U.S. and global military impact standards for maximum protection in harsh operational conditions.
