Take a look at this heat signature. You don’t have to be a cav scout to identify that this looks like an innocent car right? Except it’s actually a tank using BAE systems ADAPTIV thermal plates to give off a deceptive heat signature to mimic a car. Imagine if your command center or even regular soldiers could hide their heat signature like this? It would give you a huge advantage on the modern battlefield.

Over a decade ago when I deployed to Iraq , Thermals optics were still so expensive and difficult to produce that my platoon of 40 soldiers had to share just 2 devices between all of us. Infantrymen are known for sharing drink, ladies, diseases but not thermal optics that’d be gross. However, in the past two decades since then there’s been this explosion in the availability of thermal vision technology. It’s even easier to acquire than night vision goggles in many cases. Today, the highest casualty producing weapon on the battlefield is artillery strikes coordinated by cheap quadcopters and drones using thermal imagers.
