Soldiers navigating tight, low-light environments now have a new tool for quick, precise target engagement.

Israel’s Meprolight has rolled out the Sting Lumina, a dual-wavelength laser with an integrated infrared illuminator designed for close-quarters and covert operations.

Built to handle high-recoil, large-caliber weapons including machine guns, the device offers red and green lasers for rapid target acquisition.

Its integrated infrared pointer and adjustable infrared flashlight let operators mark and track targets discreetly in darkness, minimizing the chance of detection.

“The Sting Lumina reflects our commitment to advancing electro-optical systems shaped by real-world defense requirements and long-term security trends,” said Golan Kalimi, senior vice president at Meprolight.

“It reflects how we translate frontline operational insight into scalable, reliable systems, reinforcing our role as a trusted partner to defense and security forces worldwide.”

Core Features

The Sting Lumina features ambidextrous controls, allowing operators to use either a control cable or a top-mounted button for steady handling under pressure.

An intuitive zeroing mechanism aligns both laser channels simultaneously, cutting setup time while maintaining accuracy across visible and infrared modes.

Built-in safeguards prevent accidental activation of high-power or visible lasers, keeping operators concealed and safe in the field.

The system reportedly meets military standards and runs on a standard battery to enable up to six hours of operation.
