? Camouflage uniform, a basic type of training uniform, a new protective color with irregular patterns composed of green, yellow, tea, black and other colors. The reflected light wave of the camouflage uniform is roughly the same as the light wave reflected by the surrounding scenery. It can not only confuse the enemy's visual reconnaissance, but also deal with infrared reconnaissance, making it difficult for the enemy's modern reconnaissance equipment to catch the target. The universal 'six-color camouflage uniform'.
? Ballistic protection, the basic principle is to consume the function of the projectile through the elongation and breaking of high-strength and high-modulus fibers. The development of ballistic protective clothing has gone through the transition from metal armored protective plates to non-metallic synthetic materials, and from pure synthetic materials (such as nylon, Kevlar, etc.) to the development of composite bulletproof systems such as synthetic materials, metal armor plates, and ceramic protective sheets. .
05
'Nuclear, biological and chemical protective textiles'
Nuclear, biological and chemical protective textiles are designed for nuclear, biological, and chemical to prevent all known harmful substances and gases. Commonly used are breathable protective clothing materials, protective cloaks, and lightweight protective systems (including protective clothing, glasses, boots, gloves, Half face mask, carrying bag), NBC protective tent and other products.
According to different protection principles, chemical protective clothing can be divided into detoxification type, isolation type and adsorption type; according to the different degree of protection, the US Environmental Protection Agency divides the protection level into ABCD four.

'Camouflage and shielding material'
Displaying the false and concealing the truth is an important part of battlefield protection, including camouflage and protection against visible light, near infrared, far infrared, and electromagnetic radiation. Common electromagnetic shielding tents, environmentally friendly self-adaptive camouflage materials, inflatable strategic weapons and equipment, etc., have been widely used.
As early as World War I, in order to conceal personnel and weapons, the army tied some cloth strips to the fishing nets used for fishing at the time and covered the weapons, which became the world's first camouflage net (Swedish Balaguda camouflage net) .
Now our military camouflage network has constituted a product system for anti-optical reconnaissance camouflage, anti-radar reconnaissance camouflage, anti-mid-far infrared reconnaissance camouflage, and anti-multiband reconnaissance camouflage.
Camouflage stealth devices are mainly used in the radar band, thermal infrared, near infrared, visible light and other target characteristic signal control of ground weapons and equipment such as main battle tanks, armored vehicles, and self-propelled artillery equipment, to counter the detection of millimeter wave radar and the strike of centimeter wave detection radar , To greatly improve the battlefield survivability and combat effectiveness of army weapons and equipment.
