Rathaus, post 315,
We have investigated the Swarovski Habicht 8x30 civilan version and the military one. Swarovski had informed Jan van Daalen that there no optical differences. We found the following data:
Habicht 8x30 civilian:
Weight 546 g, close focus 3m, FOV 136 m/1000m, eye relief 12 mm, 500 nm transmission 95,1%, 550 nm transmission 95,9%, central focus, waterproof, color reproduction perfect

Habicht 8x30 military:
weight 618 g, close focus 5 m, FOV 136m/1000m, eye relief 12 mm, 500nm transmission 95,2%, 550 nm transmission 96,0%, individual focus, waterproof, color reproduction perfect.

So we have no doubt that Swarovski has given us the correct information,
The increase in weight of the military version is probably caused by the green rubber body armament. For your information I have added the measured transmission spectra.
