Abstract
A camouflage device adapted to fold and unfold and to assume the shape of a dummy object when in the unfolded configuration for camouflaging an object, includes a frame for supporting a camouflage netting, with the frame being adaptable for displaying irregular configuration and including flexible rod structures having one end detachably secured to a crown member and another end adapted for placement upon a suitable location of the object to be camouflaged. Each of the rod structures is made of an elastic band of fiber-reinforced plastic material or steel to allow flexible configuration and random shaping of the frame.
