Now available for pre-order, the Bravo Six Boonie from Canada’s Carcajou Tactical combines the beloved Boonie hat with a night vision device skull crusher.
The Boonie is often used by snipers as a base for their ghillie head covering due to its wide-brimmed coverage.
Features:
– Multiple pass through for the head harness.
– Eyelet holes to secure the NVG Shroud
– Oversized fit to accommodate Head Harness by Tracer Tactical
– Durable 2 layer crown construction (3/4” netting, Nyco)
– Pre worn brim to eliminate straight lines
– Neck adjustment paracord
Tactical Distributors have teamed up with Q to introduce a thick pile Sherpa jacket in Bandit or Madala camouflage patterns.
Offered as part of TD’s MTHD line of premium outdoor clothing, the Sherpa Jacket uses a high-pile fleece fabric combined with abrasion-resistant reinforcement panels in the shoulders, elbows, and pockets feature a super lightweight and durable stretch woven nylon ripstop fabric + DWR (Durable Water Repellent). The underarm gusset material is a Merino wool/ polyester blend grid-knit fleece for enhanced odor-control and mobility.
The Tracer Tactical Origami Sunshade is a foldable sunshade for the Persistent Systems RDC (Rugged Display & Controller), enhancing the display in bright daylight conditions and also shielding the screens light in lowlight environments.
It is made from Squadron / B-52 Laminate and enforced with thermoplastic Tegris/Curv. Includes two small adhesive Velcro hook squares for anchoring the shade in place while in use. Requires the RDC Juggernaut Case to mount properly.
My friends in Germany at ePIG Group have produced a new video called “The ultimate camouflage comparison – NATO (KSK, Bundeswehr, US Army, USMC…) vs commercial patterns.” It’s quite extensive at an hour and a half, and there’s a lot you can glean from the video including some info on Phantomleaf.
Although the pattern has been kept under wraps, photos have recently been made public of the new Defence Forces camouflage pattern which will soon replace the four-color DPM, in service since 2000. Although called Disruptive Pattern Material, like the old British national pattern, the two patterns don’t resemble one another.
In Irish, the Defence Forces are referred to officially as Óglaigh na hÉireann and consist of the Army, Air Corps and Naval Service, along with reserve forces.
Developed by Crye Precision, this new national pattern owes some obvious design cues and color palette from MultiCam. However, there is a very distinctive element in the Irish Transitional MultiCam Pattern. You’ll notice two stylized versions of the letter “F” which stand for Fianna Fáil (not the political party).
In addition to ITMP, Irish troops will also be receiving a completely new clothing ensemble called the DF Combat Clothing System. Cost estimates for the new gear are at upwards of €40 million which is still under development and will feature versions in both male and female sizing.
The Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover reduces the VIS (physical visual), UV, NIR and thermal signatures (6µm ~ 15µm, high end of MWIR, LWIR, FIR) of the individual to help avoid being observed and/or targeted by ground-based detection, sUAS, and UAS near-peer threats.
The Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover uses complex, next-generation engineering to accomplish the unimaginable: multispectral signature reduction for the individual war fighter against real world thermal and night vision technology, while simultaneously providing a 3D visual breakup.
The Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover is another piece of the SPECTRALFLAGE camouflage system designed to reduce thermal signature around the head, face, and neck.This is the next evolution in advanced thermal mitigation for the end user. New threats on the battlefield require new solutions as advanced thermal detection and aiming devices rapidly evolve.
Made with the most advanced military grade A-TACS camouflage patterns the Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover provides physical 3D visual breakup, granting the end user the most advanced concealment solution primarily designed for urban, desert, and open environments.
Fitting on Mid/High/Fast cut helmets, the Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover is easy and fast to deploy, as well as small enough to fit into a pocket or small pouch.
The Predator Ghillie™ SPECTRALFLAGE Helmet Cover is the next advancement in concealment technology. On the battlefield of today, tomorrow, and the future; multispectral concealment is the way.
