TACTICAM 3D CAMOUFLAGE SYSTEM
Protection is our passion. This simple yet powerful phrase is the driving force behind what ArmorWorks stands for. The ArmorWorks passion for protection is driven by an unwavering focus on research, development, and advanced engineering. Over the past two decades, this passion has resulted in the development of exceptional products, specialized proprietary materials, and one-of-a-kind manufacturing processes that have enabled us to create some of the most unique and advanced survivability solutions available!
One of these unique products is our TactiCam system, which is a new state of the art 3D multispectral camouflage system that focuses on threat defeat earlier in the kill chain, by making the warfighter harder to detect and identify. This highly durable camouflage system mounts to a vehicle, shelter, or other platform with the goal of reducing the overall thermal, visual, and radar signature of the vehicle it is installed on. TactiCam is an extremely ruggedized camouflage system that utilizes the latest materials, coatings, and engineered geometry of hexagon shapes with inherent peaks and valleys that provide natural shadowing effects to visually disrupt a vehicles signature. It can be easily integrated onto any platform with the use of dual lock or traditional fastener methods.
The latest generation of TactiCam has been equipped with two technologically advanced materials. The first material is a radar absorptive constituent that reduces the panels radar cross signature, which hides the vehicle from aerial and ground radar systems. The second material is a low emissivity and solar absorption coating that reduces the thermal loading to and from the vehicle. These two coatings reduce the vehicles thermal signature within various waves of infrared (SWIR, LWIR, and MWIR). The pigments of the coatings can also be modified to provide a variety of colors and camouflage patterns to further enhance the visual camouflage performance in addition to the IR reduction. Testing is currently being conducted in conjunction with the U.S. Army to improve, and shape future signature management requirements.
