Swarovski versus Habicht

Can anyone tell me the difference between Swarovski and Habicht? I know that Swarovski makes Habicht. Is it the quality or a model variation? My question is mostly geared towards a rifle scope.

Thanks

I believe Habicht is a part of a product line name....in German it could either refer to a "Hawk" or a mountain by that name in Austria. It appears as a trade name on a couple of scopes I have.

On the Swarovski website Habicht is their model name for their traditionally styled binoculars.
