Abstract
An aiming device is configured to generate an infrared cross on a target. The cross having a principal wavelength above the wavelength detectable by image intensification night vision devices. A night vision system having a short wave infrared detector includes an illuminator having a principal wavelength above the wavelength detectable by image intensification night vision devices. A beacon is configured to generate light at a wavelength above which can be scene with image intensification night vision devices.
