 History of Type 62 Telescope Binoculars High Quality

The Type 62 telescope binoculars high quality is an excellent product with excellent optical performance, excellent durability and powerful functionality as its core advantages. The type 62 telescope binoculars high quality not only shows extremely high practicality in the military field, but also has a considerable collection value due to its unique historical background and exquisite craftsmanship. The type 62 telescope binoculars high quality can be called a landmark product in China's military optical equipment.

With its precise optical design, this type 62 telescope binoculars high quality can provide clear and stable observation effects and meet the use needs in various complex environments. Its sturdy and durable structural design ensures that 62 telescope binoculars high quality can maintain excellent working conditions even under extreme conditions. Whether it is the practical application in national defense construction in the past or the symbolic significance of a classic military product today, the Type 62 telescope binoculars high quality fully reflects the development level and ingenuity of China's military technology. Therefore, type 62 telescope binoculars high quality is not only an ideal choice in the professional field, but also a sought-after object for many military enthusiasts and collectors.

1. Historical background

The Type 62 telescope binoculars high quality is the first military telescope independently developed by China and equipped on a large scale. 62 telescope binoculars high quality was in born  of 1962 and was designed and finalized by Yunnan Northern Optical Instrument Factory (formerly Factory 298). Its 

development background is the urgent need for the localization of military equipment after the 

founding of New China, aiming to replace imported products and meet all-weather combat 

requirements.

2. Design reference

The design of the Type 62 telescope binoculars high quality refers to the German Zeiss 8×30   DELTRENTIS ("German Eight") and the Soviet B8 telescope ("Soviet Eight"), but it has been improved in 

combination with China's actual needs. For example, the addition of an iron front prism cover, a 

thickened rear prism cover, and an additional desiccant chamber have improved its impact resistance and

mildew resistance.

3. Production and improvement

Since its finalization in 1962, the Type 62 telescope binoculars high quality has undergone many modifications, divided into early, mid-term and late types (such as "62-8WYJ"). As the main manufacturer,

Yunnan Optical Instrument Factory further optimized the optical performance of its later models, making

them popular in the collection market.

4. Optical performance

-Coating technology: Full multi-layer coating (FMC) is adopted, with high light transmittance, sharp 

imaging, and true color reproduction, especially in low-light environments (such as dusk and dawn). 

-Field of view and magnification: 8x magnification combined with 30mm objective lens diameter, field of

 view 8.5°, taking into account stability and observation range, suitable for handheld use. 

- Graticule function: Built-in rangefinder graticule, which can roughly measure the target distance and 

azimuth, suitable for military reconnaissance.

5. Mechanical and protective design

- All-metal structure: The mirror body is made of metal, wrapped in cadmium sulfide armor, with strong 

impact resistance, can withstand acceleration shock of more than 20G, and adapt to field environments. 

- Sealing performance: Nitrogen-filled waterproof design, prism chamber equipped with desiccant 

chamber, working temperature range -43℃ to +55℃, meeting all-weather use requirements.

6. Special functions

- Red viewing function (early models): Some early Type 62 telescopes have infrared detection capabilities

, which can identify enemy infrared light sources (such as night vision goggles) through photosensitive 

screens, but this function has been cancelled in later civilian products.

4. Application and collection value

- Multi-field application: In addition to military use, it is also widely used in public security, forestry, 

navigation and other fields, and is still highly regarded after more than 40 years.

- Collection significance: As a classic representative of Chinese military telescopes, the Type 62 is known 

as the "entry-level telescope" for collectors, especially the version produced by Yunnan Optical 

Instrument Factory.

The Type 62 telescope is a milestone in China's military optical equipment. Its design takes into account 

both actual combat needs and production feasibility, and it still has both practical and collection value. If

 higher optical performance is required, modern civilian models can be considered; but if historical 

significance and adaptability to extreme environments are sought, the Type 62 is still an irreplaceable 

choice.
