The M72 shoulder-fired rocket launcher is receiving a capability boost with a new multi-weapon thermal smart sight developed by Finnish firm Senop and Norway-based Nammo Raufoss AS.
Called OSKAR TWS, the system integrates an attachable laser rangefinder with either a wired or wireless connection to enable rapid distance measurement and improve first-hit probability.
It features a quick-mount bracket that requires no boresighting, allowing the sight to be attached or removed quickly in field conditions.
A built-in ballistic computer further supports targeting accuracy and performance, while the system remains lightweight and modular without compromising safety.
Designed for flexibility, OSKAR TWS is intended for use across multiple weapon platforms, enabling operators to transfer the sight between systems as needed.
“We are proud to introduce the Senop OSKAR TWS, which is truly the next-generation multi-weapon thermal sight,” said Aki Korhonen, president of Senop.
“The M72 is used in over 40 countries around the world to great effect, and we wanted to enhance it by providing it with a high-quality thermal sight.”
Platform Compatibility and Testing
Beyond rocket launchers, the device can be integrated into assault rifles and machine guns.
It is compatible with iron and red-dot sights, fixed 2x optical magnification, and digital zoom to extend effective engagement range.
Developed over the past 18 months, OSKAR TWS is expected to complete testing and evaluation later this year.
The system was displayed at the Eurosatory 2026 event in Paris.
