Invisible Tanks, Planes and Armor Could Hit Battlefields in 5 Years

The best invisible weapons platform for 110 years and counting.

There is no SUBstitute...

Anyone want to bet that this newfangled gizmo can be defeated by a pair of sunglasses with visible light filters (IR or UV only).

Bahaha reminds me of the Mirage tanks in Command and Conquer Red Alert 2

..

Anyways, I think this would only be good at night or bad visibilty, otherwise, your going to see a little refractions. Also, what about defeating Radar and IR sensors? Its all nice and dandy if any old G.I with a rifle can't visually detect you, but what about that tank with 120~125mm Canon with IR sensors? Or the Mud-moving bird coming in hot with FLIR or Ground scanning radar with heat seeking/radar guided missiles?

Didn't think so

Edit: What kind of sub is that? On first inspection I thought it was a 688 (i?) but, I didn't think LAs had a white coat of paint near the bow?.

Fairwater planes with what seems to be tubes behind the sail. Not a lot of bulk behind the sail, so I don't think it is a Delta. Looks like an Ohio to me.

Hey the good part of this is how the costs for developing 3D war games could sink, can you imagine what the 3D modellers for wargames will be doing for a living in some years?

True, but it still looks like the white 'paint' ( Think that's what it is..) that Soviet Subs had on their Bow..

Note the white/reflective stuff on the bow?

I get what you're saying. To me, though, the sail doesn't look like a Ruskie boat.

I can see problems, how will the troops find their tanks after a night out?
