[[Image:INDIA5.jpg|thumb|right|300px|A pair of Marines scan with [[M16 rifle|M16A4 rifles]] in [[Fallujah, Iraq]] (December 2004); the one in the foreground has an ITL MARS attached via a [[MIL-STD-1913]] "Picatinny rail".]]

The '''ITL MARS''' ('''M'''ulti-purpose '''A'''iming '''R'''eflex '''S'''ight) is a gun [[Sight (device)|sight]] that combines two sighting devices, a [[reflex sight]] and a [[Laser_applications#Laser_sight|laser sight]], as well as a backup [[Iron sights|iron sight]]. It is designed and produced by [[ITL Optronics]] company, based in [[Israel]]. The laser may be either visible or [[infrared]] and can be activated as need via a pressure switch. It has been purchased by a number of forces including the U.S. military for its [[M16 Rifle|M16 series weapons]], Israel for its [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] rifle, and India (locally manufactured under license as raptor sight) for its [[INSAS rifle]], as well as other commercial customers.
