Abstract

Camouflage material incorporates means for specifying and providing predetermined degree of reflection of incident radar waves which is optimum for particular use environments. The overall pattern is the resultant of control of reflection of longer radar wavelengths by a layer of electrically conductive fibrils of controlled density and reflection of shorter radar wavelengths by thin mosaic layer of metal.
