According to an Army report, the service began issuing night-vision devices to its aviators in 1985 and has continually acquired goggles that allow pilots and aircrews to see more clearly and with better depth perception at night ever since. Conversely, intense lights can overwhelm a user. Military helicopter pilots often wear their goggles a couple finger-widths away from their eyes to allow them to “see around” the devices with the naked eye when needed.The night-vision goggles the Black Hawk crew members almost certainly carried would be mounted onto the front of their helmets, allowing them to be flipped up or down quickly.
The severity of the crash means investigators will also be looking for signs of damage or detachment to the goggles and related equipment. Given the extent of the damage, it may take further analysis to determine whether the goggles were in use and how they may have been affected during the crash.
