Ukrainian drone footage of an attack on a Russian infantry group equipped with thermal camouflage cloaks intended to reduce their detectability by drones with night vision and thermal imaging systems.

  1. They must have been quite disappointed it didn’t work….

  2. just like your kid that puts sheet on and you fake not seeing him XD

  3. Hm, black square moving around, I’m sure it’s nothing, I’m looking for Russians

  4. This is quite fascinating, they’re sending the troops out basically in their own body bags…

  5. They are onto something though. Decoys are probably one of the most realistic counter for drones. But it’s hard to simulate a warm, moving bipedal human body. The more you obscure the human shape (let’s say a giant heat reflecting bag) the easier is to fake it.

    The future of warfare is apparently a conga-line of warm pillows in trash bags some of which might contain a live Russian. Or roll them down the hill a thousand barrel.

  6. “uhhh, guys? I’m beginning to think these cloaks don’t work”

    “Shut up, Andrey”

  7. The cloak is less effective reducing the thermal signature post-strike.
