If you mean on any of your suits, after tutorial, the googles are an upgrade. I managed to find a Maverick suit Level 3 at a random station (I think it was around the 30 million credits mark) and it has an upgrade of NVG in place.

I think they are only available as an engineer tweak.

I have Maverick level 3 suit , no night vision. Would be handy as most planet missions are on dark side

Hmm, odd. I guessed it was simply the upgrade that became available at Level 3.

Did you upgrade it yourself? Mine was store bought and came fitted...

(Yes, they are very much needed!)

Store bought , I thought they would have been standard on all suits , night vision available on all ships.

Quite interesting if you have to hunt for "rare" suits that have prefitted equipment/mods.

Almost awesome even imo.

It would be very helpful, I agree. I wonder if it was just a random addition on my suit? I guess I'll have to keep an eye out for other suits and see what they come with.

But, I completely agree: it's so dark they are a must have!

Good luck, mate. If I find anything out, I'll post back here...

Nightvision should be standard, if it's standard on ships, if ye ask me.

Yeah just travel to different stations and you may get lucky. Watched a YouTube video that stated they are "single-purchase items across all game modes" - meaning, if they are bought at one station, they are gone. I flew to the outer-fringes of the bubble and I've seen two Maverick Level 3 suits for sale, several Level 3 and Level 2 weapons...

It would make sense. But, I guess it gives players something to strive for. I mainly use another suit which does not have the NVG so, I feel the pain ;)
