Holosun IRIS-3-RD-IR Tactical Triple Module Red Laser VCSEL IR illuminator
Holosun IRIS-RD3 Tactical Triple Module Red Laser VCSEL
IR illuminator
The Holosun IRIS-RD3, released in 2025, represents the pinnacle of multifunctional tactical illumination with its triple-threat system: visible red laser (Class 3R, 1/5mW dual power), IR pointer (Class 1, 0.1/0.7mW), and VCSEL IR illuminator (60mW)—all integrated into a redesigned 7075 T6 hard-anodized aluminum chassis that's 43% lighter and 20% lower profile than predecessors at 181g (81x50x34mm). Central ambidextrous activation button supports momentary/constant modes, enhanced rear selector toggles power levels/configurations, and included dual-button remote pad features forced visible laser override for CQB dominance.

IRIS-RD3 Mission-Critical Engineering:
VCSEL IR Flood: 60mW Class 1 illuminator floods 50m+ zones through
NVGs—uniform beam without hotspots for positive target ID
Dual-Power Versatility: Red laser 1mW
(training/low-vis) to 5mW (daylight CQB); IR pointer scales 0.1mW (stealth) to
0.7mW (max bloom)
Precision Zeroing: 0.5 MOA clicks with
±50 MOA windage/elevation range—sub-MOA holds through 1000G impacts
Extreme Environment: IPX8 submersion,
-20°C to +51°C operation, CR123A powers 3-5hr continuous across all functions
Frequently
Asked Questions:
VCSEL vs LED IR? VCSEL
delivers collimated flood (no ring artifacts); 60mW penetrates fog better than
100mW LEDs
Remote Pad Functions? Button 1:
momentary all modes; Button 2: forced red laser override—prevents accidental IR
exposure
Battery Drain Order? IR
illuminator highest draw; use momentary remote for 20+hr patrols
NVG Washout? 0.1mW IR low mode
prevents bloom overload on Gen4 tubes
Mount Height? 20% lower chassis =
1.2" co-witness with standard AR irons
Deployment
Protocols:
Zero Sequence: 25m pistol/50m rifle; verify 3x 3-shot groups <1 MOA;
15 in-lbs mount torque
Mode Priority: Day=Red High;
Twilight=Red Low+IR Low; Night=IR High+VCSEL; Rear selector: 5 clicks full
cycle
Maintenance: Lens cloth only; dry
storage post-water exposure; monthly zero checks
Tactical Doctrine: VCSEL for room
clearing; remote pad prevents flashlight fumbles under stress
