ABSTRACT:
A three-color camouflage system comprises layers of camouflage material hng low, intermediate and high thermal emissivities in the infrared spectral range, and appearing black, green and brown in the visible spectral range. The camouflage surface is structured in such manner that there is color adaptation to the natural background in the visible spectral range, as well as adaptation to the natural background in thermal emissivity in the infrared spectral range so that targets cannot be recognized with infrared sensing devices. Thermal emissivity in the infrared spectral range is controlled by superimposing layers of intermediate and high emissivity onto a basic low emissivity camouflage layer and providing perforations in these layers allowing the low-emissivity layer to be seen. High-emissivity areas are provided by perforations allowing the high-emissivity surface of the object being camouflaged to be seen. Alternatively, spots of high emissivity are superimposed on the three camouflage layers to provide areas of high emissivity. This camouflage system may also be used in the construction of decoys.
