Igny, France, June 29, 2020 – As part of the FPSA (Semi-Automatic Precision Rifle) project, the French DGA (Directorate General of Armaments) selected OIP Sensors Systems (Belgium) as prime contractor to deliver 2620 rifle systems with ammunitions and equipped with day sights and night vision clip-on sights. HGH was chosen by OIP as exclusive supplier of field collimators for the maintenance of day sights as well as for Light Intensification and thermal sights.
