1. A viewing optic comprising:
an objective lens system configured to focus a target image from an outward scene to a first focal plane having a reticle, an erector lens system that inverts the target image, a second focal plane, an ocular lens system for viewing the target image, (ii) a beam combiner; (iii) an active display configured to generate an image, (iv) a collector lens system configured to collect light from the active display and having an inner lens cell, an outer lens cell, and a spring located between the inner and outer lens cells, wherein the collector lens system is located between the active display and a reflective material, the reflective material configured to direct the generated image from the active display to the beam combiner, wherein the image from the active display and the target image from the objective lens system are combined into the first focal plane.
