    The low-level-light image intensifier is an important photoelectric detection and imaging device in the field of night vision, and it is widely used in head-mounted display, hand-held observation and night aiming. The super-second-generation inverted image low-level-light image intensifier with fiber-optic image inverter is widely used in the night aiming system. According to the requirement of practical application, the influence of turning angle error and snake-shaped distortion in the inherent error of inverted image low-level-light image intensifier on the measurement error of aiming and stroke difference in application was analyzed. The analyses show that when the image turning angle error is less than 30' and the snake distortion is less than 30 μm, it can meet the requirements of close-range aiming and measurement of stroke difference. A detection device was developed to control the error, which solved the problem and put forward the relevant quality control points for the production and manufacture of image intensifiers for this kind of application.
