The BUS will be used alongside the CNC’s chosen primary sighting system, a holographic sight, and must enable officers to retain an effective sighting capability should the primary sight fail, become damaged or otherwise be unavailable. This requirement supports operational resilience by providing a dependable and readily accessible alternative sighting option.
