An Invisible Tank

Will it be made of the same stuff as Wonder Woman's airplane?


It is developing special cameras that film the surrounding scenery and project it on to the men or their vehicles clad in reflective materials.

As a result enemies look straight "through" them.

Recent trials have had some success, according to the MoD, and use of the technology on the battlefield could be just a few years away.

Sounds interesting. There are other ways to detect the enemy beside a visual conformation so any advantage will be short lived.

I have thought about this and since we seem to want to fight our wars in third world countries and usually the power situation is not very good, I would say that once the sun went down , all tanks would be invisible.

We do better in air assaults than ground assaults. At least it's easy to withdraw the Air Force. :lol:
