Torrent Photonics is proud to work with our customers to design, manufacture, and test optical products, including fire control optics, remote sensing, and imaging systems for military applications. Torrent produces a line of durable fire control optics for use in combat that is designed and developed internally. In addition, Torrent focuses on low-light applications and target designation, including Long Waver, Mid Wave, and Short Wave Infrared imaging systems. Torrent can modify COT’s sensors to provide spectral and/or polarimetric content.

Custom bayer and custom mosaic filters can be integrated into existing focal plane arrays, and devices using these products are routinely implemented to provide more positive identification and content for a scene. Enhanced fielded devices, like the laser spotting monocular, improve usability by providing a solution that doesn’t need daytime filters, creating better situational awareness with less risk of mistakes.

Torrent Photonics produces avionics solutions for the military, including cockpit display windows, EO packages for reconnaissance aircraft, and optical components for targeting systems. Torrent sells directly to the government, prime contractors, and OEM plan manufacturers. In addition to aviation, Torrent also supports space-based projects with multispectral imagers, lenses, and optical filters. Torrent is AS9100 certified and ITAR registered.
