The sight employs a 640 x 480 17µm Thermoteknix Microcam 2 thermal imaging core with patented XTi shutterless technology capable of detecting a tank at 5.4km. Combined with a x6 day channel for recognition of a main battle tank at 4km, the Sabre Ti is a rugged and reliable solid-state tank sight in an ITAR-free package.

The Thermoteknix Microcam 2 component of Sabre Ti features boresight adjustable reticules and has an operating temperature range of -40°C to + 70°C, has no moving parts, completely silent in operation and uses <0.6W of power. It gives Sabre a 24hr capability, enabling the user to see deep into the battlefield increasing their surveillance and target acquisition range delivering full performance night and day.

Microcam is the core technology behind a number of Thermoteknix key products including its ClipIR clip-on thermal imager for fused night vision and Ticam thermal imaging binoculars. Microcam modules are also employed in numerous well known and high-end third party products including UAVs, thermal weapon sights, man-portable and long-range fixed surveillance devices, unattended ground sensors, driver aids, enhanced vision systems for aircraft and many other global products. The Microcam range of long-wave thermal imaging cores is available in 384×288 and 640×480 resolution modules with a number of pixel pitch and lens options.

The new Sabre Ti was unveiled on the Kent Periscope stand at the Defence & Security Equipment International ( DSEI) 2013, the world's largest Defence & Security exhibition, held in London in September this year .
