Aimpoint introduces Concealed Engagement Unit - Aimpoint® CEU™
New Product - March 2008
The Aimpoint CEU is mounted behind the Aimpoint sight and rotates a full 260○ allowing the operator to safely look around either right or left-hand corners, up staircases or down tunnels from almost any angle. Since the Aimpoint CEU does not affect the sight’s point of impact, the CEU can easily be passed from one operator to another using the company’s revolutionary TwistMount™. Most importantly, the compound optics contained in the CEU gives the operator a true image, not the distorted mirror image found in the cheap reflective devices currently being offered on the market.
Originally prototyped in 2005, the CEU was completely re-engineered following reviews of the initial concept with active military units. Compatible with all Aimpoint sights, the new Aimpoint CEU is much smaller and lighter than the originally planned design, reducing the weight of the unit by more than 50%. The stabilized internal optics were optimized for better image quality, allowing targets to be identified and engaged more rapidly. A lanyard loop was added to aid in retention of the unit, and the chassis design was changed to allow the CEU to be quickly stripped from the weapon if required. The CEU can be used as a hand held viewing device.
This product requires an end-user certificate.

Aimpoint introduces Aimpoint CompM4s® sight
New Product - March 2008
In 2006, the US Army ran a series of competitive tests to determine if there was another sight available that performed better than their existing Aimpoint CompM2’s. When the testing was completed, an Aimpoint sight was once again proven to be the best available. That sight, the Aimpoint CompM4, has been standardized as the US Army’s new M68CCO and has been chosen by the Norwegian Army.
To accommodate our customers, the CompM4 sight is now available with a low battery compartment, and is called Aimpoint CompM4s. In all other aspects, the CompM4s is identical to the Aimpoint CompM4.
The Aimpoint CompM4 and CompM4s red dot sights are new products differencing themselves from the previous sight on several features. They rely on a single AA battery to provide a 'constant on' of up to 80,000 hours or 8 years.
The CompM4 sights have an improved quick release mount (QRP2) integrated with the sight, a feature that improves speed and ease when mounting the sight on the weapon, improving the effectiveness of the individual soldier.
When combined with user friendliness, the ability to obtain a fast and accurate target acquisition in any type of light condition, unrivalled ruggedness, ability to function in all types of weather conditions and outstanding long operational life on a single battery, the CompM4 sights are virtually unmatched in the market.
