Frequently Asked Questions about Unity Tactical
- What is Unity Tactical known for?
- Unity is best known for its FAST risers and mounts, which elevate optics and magnifiers to night vision-friendly heights for passive aiming and improved ergonomics.
- What does the FAST mount do?
- The FAST series lifts red dots and magnifiers to a 2.26" optical centerline—providing a more heads-up shooting posture and better compatibility with helmets and NODs.
- What is the Unity Flip-to-Center mount?
- This is Unity’s proprietary magnifier mount that flips the optic down and forward, rather than to the side—making it more streamlined and snag-resistant.
- What is the SPARK IR strobe?
- The SPARK is a small, helmet-mountable IR strobe used for marking and identification during nighttime or low-visibility operations. It’s simple, durable, and runs for hundreds of hours on a coin cell battery.
- Are Unity mounts compatible with Aimpoint and EOTECH optics?
- Yes. Unity mounts support common footprints like T1/T2 and EOTECH G-series magnifiers. Many also accept Holosun and other optics with similar patterns.
- Why use a taller optic riser like FAST?
- It improves posture, clears comms gear and gas masks, and allows seamless passive aiming through night vision without breaking cheek weld.

- The SPARK IR runs on a CR2032 battery and offers over 200 hours of runtime, making it an ultra-reliable solution for long-duration field use.
- Where is Unity Tactical gear made?
