At this point, I\u2019d like to showcase the color and infrared signature of a Schuberth combat helmet compared to a Busch PROtective helmet. This post focuses solely on the fact that NIR signatures can vary, rather than on comfort or protective properties.   On the left is the Busch PROtective AMP-1 E HC in Stone Grey Olive, and on the right is the Schuberth M100 Mid Cut in Bronze Green RAL 6013. For reference, there\u2019s a UF Pro pant in Stone Grey on the left and a Hexonia Smock in Flecktarn in the middle. \"\" Both helmets harmonize well with Flecktarn, but the Schuberth model is a bit more similar in tone to the Flecktarn pattern. \"\"<\/p>\n

In the infrared spectrum (from 720nm), the Busch PROtective helmet appears a few shades darker than the Schuberth helmet. However, when comparing it to the values from the Flecktarn pattern, you can see that it could be even darker. \"\"<\/p>\n

On a bright grassy field, the lighter Schuberth helmet naturally performs better in terms of blending in. \"\"<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

The IR signature of a product largely depends on the specific requirements or specifications of a contract. A uniform signature can be light or dark, and as long as the helmet doesn’t reflect 100% or 0%, the basic camouflage will generally be effective. Whether a light, dark, or neutral infrared signature is better depends on the environment<\/strong>. Ideally, you would use a helmet cover that matches the surroundings to complete the camouflage or break up the surface using spray paint or clay paint.
\nHowever, it\u2019s important to note that EC Paint in olive tends to be quite dark, so it would work best on the Schuberth helmet. For the Busch PROtective helmet, a slightly lighter color would provide the desired contrast. That said, a helmet is much more than just head camouflage. Protection and comfort <\/strong>should be the top priorities. As recent experiences have shown, camouflage isn\u2019t everything\u2014recognizing your own forces<\/strong> is equally essential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
