The Wilcox RAPTAR Xe™ is the next generation in the RAPTAR line of products. As a class 3B high power laser aiming device, the RAPTAR Xe is designed specifically for the military and law enforcement markets. The RAPTAR Xe provides snipers and advanced tactical shooters increased accuracy and precise engagement of targets at extremely long ranges.

Compared to it's predecessor, the RAPTAR Xe is a smaller, lighter, and stronger laser aiming device which significantly increases first-round hit capability. The built-in networking capabilities and user interface give the RAPTAR Xe superior maintenance and replenishment connectivity with key auxiliary devices. These leading-edge features increase the operator's lethality and situational awareness.

Sounds like an MRF with an illuminator / vis laser? Love it

Probably 12.5k at least

I'm just curious what the I2 units they are using that makes them continue to build these with IR lasers / illuminators. VSCEL is a welcome upgrade! Data sheet states 12.5 oz which is awesome

Target marking, pinging, however you want to call it. You can customize the laser ID for individual users. I won't go into more detail than that.

Expecting a bunch of Raptar S in the PX in 2025

I assume the ranging laser does that if connected appropriately (I'm sure MRF can do that too). The NIR illuminator / lasers are for aiming / illuminating and seem to be an add on to the MRF (which is awesome for thermals that don't use illumination)

Can be done with the visible IR lasers. You can individualize them.

Nice. Im assuming be available Q4 of this year maybe? Damn I want one. I had plans for another Rap S or MRF. But since this post, it's another game changer.

[DocUSMCRetired]

If anyone is not aware, the LP model is the "Low Power Laser" Civilian models. I should have said that.

Will the Hp Raptar xe be available to US goverment use also? Or just for Mil and LE only?

It’s Wilcox. Your .hhs.gov email is no good.

Agreed! A resident/ non- mil/le from Ukraine probably have better chance getting a hold of one of these HP Xe’s then anyone in the US. Heck, our own president left probably 100’s of them at Afghanistan when the they pulled out the US troops.

 

[Dogtown]

Fuck yeah! I'm half-Ukrainian, so I'll head on over to Wilcox and collect mine. Suck it, losers!

These are questions you will need to direct to Wilcox. I am not a privilege to say.

I did the same day they announced the release. Where did you find the LP pricing?

I apologize but I am not able to share that information. I can tell you it was a good price from a reliable source at Wilcox.

.Gov can also get it but you need to jump through some hoops I just confirmed. Lots of triplicate paperwork.

 

[Conqueror]

lol I literally just bought an MRF-Xe. It’s going on a thermal gun though so I guess I can live with offboard laser/illum.

 

[taisenki]

Will it be compatible with the voodoo-s's traceIR?

 

[Teflon16]

Any idea when these will be available for sale?

You can buy them now.

Do you know where? Can’t seem to find them offered online anywhere? Or is it just through Wilcox directly

Wilcox directly is the only way to buy them.

 

[raininotdead]

Wilcox directly is the only way to buy them.

You mean contact a wilcox distributors on the list? Or directly ask the wilcox's customer service?

 

[Dogtown]

I wouldn’t expect to see these in civie hands until much later this year, but I would be happy to be wrong.

 

[DocUSMCRetired]

I would personally contact Wilcox directly to make the purchase. I know 2 people I have directed in to buy them.

 

[Conqueror]

Wait til they get listed for sale on Optics Planet, use a 10% coupon, and backorder through them. I did that for both my Raptar and my MRF-Xe. Good way to save a lot if you don’t need it on a specific timeline.

Can the display be rotated 90deg either mechanically or in the settings for side mounted applications?
