LOL!!! — seems the terrorist war criminal ruzzian finally discovered Harry Potter films or books!
Slava Ukraini!!!
Lemon juice doesn’t work .. some one tried that already boys..
If they really did they would say nothing mass produce and then launch a major night attack. But they havent, and they cant mass produce anyrhing of note at the moment except mines.
The emperor has no clothes.
Must be using it on there su-57’s
Invented ?
How can they invent something western consumers can purchase for about $700.
Correction: small ones are $89 .
What a joke .
the US military has had this tech for 20-30 years.
lol from what I see Russia and Russians are a joke
The chemical compounds in the new stealth tech make soldiers invisible to IR tech by killing them and make their bodies turn cold. Thus greatly reducing their heat signatures
The only effective “invisibility cloak” they came up with for now is the six feet layer of dirt they rot under after eating one too many drones.
Are these invisible cloaks in the room right now? Alongside your Armatas and supersonic Kinzhals?
Up next, potion of invincibility.
Didn’t see that coming
“Yes Ivan, you can attack now … you are invisible to the enemy!”
Someone sold a million of these to the ru mod and ran with the money
“But the crates are empty??”
“They are invisible, what did you expect?”
Yeah, I heard a similar story before … and in the end a kid said he was naked.
Ukraine has been making Ruzzians invisible for a few years now.
More likely to invent self-lighting cigars. Let me get your troops some explosive barrels to smoke near, Putler
I think it’s fake, but maybe not for the reasons you’d think.
It’s not hard to hide from thermal imagers, even with improvised material. Early in the war there were reports that Ukrainian soldiers were using mylar space blankets mounted to pieces of foam sleeping mats to hide from overhead drones; this is similar to the “invisibility shields” Western snipers have used for decades.
The issue is managing the heat that’s getting reflected back/not being conducted towards the thermal imager. If it’s a “shield” with plenty of air flow behind it, it’s not a big deal–convection mixes cooler air with the warmer air and it floats away, hopefully cool enough to not trigger recognition of the differential.
In suits/uniforms, it’s not that easy. Trapping and reflecting the heat of a physically active soldier becomes both dangerous (hyperthermia) and inefficient (due to the fabric conducting heat externally) after a few minutes, even in winter. You could use an active cooling system, but that’s not really practical for a soldier in the field, nor particularly effective (the radiator is going to light up).
Passive or active ventilation can significantly meditate the heat signature (assuming you can balance it to keep someone warm but not *too* warm) by mixing warm air through numerous vents; this serves to reduce the heat signature of the person and break up their silhouette by essentially surrounding them with a hot/cold “mist” of vented air, bridging the thermal differential and “blurring” them through the scope.
So it’s been done, even if the suits are so finicky so as to preclude practical use. But those rely on essentially physical methods, whereas the article claims it’s done by a superior russian chemical process.
US field uniforms often come from the factory with anti- IR treatments. These do theoretically reduce the thermal signature (since thermal wavelengths are infrared), but the effect is negligible– it’s primarily so you don’t light up under night vision; if it significantly reduced the thermal signature, the problem of heat dissipation would remain.
So, I think it’s propaganda. The picture might not be photoshopped–it may well be that the “boots only” soldier in the picture is holding up a “shield,” or might’ve been wearing a “suit” for thirty seconds. But I can see no way that they’ve developed a practical passive thermal camouflage through “chemical processes” alone.
Russia has invisible soldiers for ages.
They draw pay, but are nowhere to be seen.
The same invisibility cloak my nephew had when he had monsters under his bed I’m sure.
They can’t even get winter gear to their troops. And they lose things that they CAN see , imagine if it was invisible.
“With blackjack and hookers !”
code for passport confiscations
Maybe it is only effective on the low quality thermal imagers they make? That being a good thing because the ruzzian troops can use these as they run towards Ukrainian lines to surrender and the other ruzzians who are supposed to shoot them, won’t see them with their shitty imagers?
They can barely arm their military with rifles. Now they are going to do a mass armament of invisibility cloaks? Oh brother…
I don’t see it happening.
If the US can’t figure out how to make it work then Russia definitely cant. As someone into night vision/thermal I know for a fact there’s nothing out there. The issue is that the cloak would have to cover the heat signature and the heat HAS to go somewhere. Unless you completely suffocate someone in a thermal cloak the heat is going to dissipate from one spot or another and give the target away.
The best Ive seen is heat mitigation clothing, but the second you start moving its painfully obvious someone is there so its only good for static units
All fine until the cloak warms up from bodyheat
That one way of accounting for Russian casualties.
They can use it on the rocket launcher drone they got off of alibaba.
As seen on TV. Not in stores. Shipping and handling by wish.com.
It is meant aigainst thermal imagers.
“HiderX said the camouflage cloak was developed using “completely Russian technology” with undisclosed chemical compounds layered onto the fabric, outperforming existing variants by “[blurring] the silhouette.”
A jumpsuit made from down jackets would also blur the silhouette.
In the end a sniper could look like a Michelin Man with his.
But Russian solders and insulating=warm clothing …
Also releasing a cooling gas could cool down the surface.
Chemistry, well it should be possible to absorb the infrared radiation.
But where does the energy go?
Okay, it can be reflected diffusely.
If it is converted into chemical energy, this should work finitely and a way would be needed to reverse the reaction, to release the energy again.
In the end a lot is possible, if you don’t want to trick the laws of thermodynamics.
A longer time ago the Russians lost a tank equipped with “Nakidka”.
“Nakidka is a Russian radar-absorbent material (RAM) camouflage that “eliminates the use of
precision-guided weapons”. Nakidka reduces the infrared, thermal, and radar band signatures of an object. …” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakidka
The only invisible cloaks they ever invented are their empty supply storages
Lead blankets? Wouldn’t put it past Russia
Mythbusters showed how a simple blanket can make you thermaly invisible until your body heats it up.
Well, nobody has been seen using one! 🫥
Russia discovers aluminum foil. More at 10.
I think they’re using the invisibility cloak on the myth that they’re the second greatest army in the world
We’ve seen cardboard hide people from FLIR cameras, this is more ruzzian bullshit.
All they need now is the elder wand and the resurrection stone. 😆
It’s called Avdiivka. Russians go there and are never seen again.
Turns Russian conscripts into dirt and sunflowers. Very hard to detect.
