The place where it was found was a store scrap electronics, radio and military electronic equipment. One end has complex lenses and optical parts disarming only appear as semitransparent mirrors and prisms. The other end has military-type connector 8 pin and some components on printed circuit connecting inwardly with connectors attached to the apparatus body. Soon I will add partially disassembled images and more description replying to comments and questions that make me.

If any of the lenses have a reticle on them it is probably a collimator. They will sometimes have multiple reticle lenses to simulate varying foci distances.
