It may have been an adaptation of the same night sights the Germans were fitting to some of their tanks in 1945. I think it was called the "Vampire". There is a geman half-track in the 'Solido' range, carrying what is normaly stated as an anti-aircraft searchlight, but from pictures I recall, I think it is actualy an I.R searchlight used in conjunction with the thermal imaging sights fitted to the Panther tanks during night attacks.
