New Ukrainian nanotech 'cloak' can hide people from drones

An unnamed Ukrainian scientist has allegedly developed a new material that can mask heat signatures of troops and gear from Russian drones.

"Necessity is the mother of all inventions," as the saying goes, and this saying has never been more accurate than when applied to wargear. The latest exemplar of this is aThe inventor has wished to remain anonymous, but his new cloak is allegedly already on the Ukrainian frontlines, helping to mask the heat signatures of troops and equipment. The "cloak" is made of black plasticized material, with its outer texture likened to a camping tarp.

The exact composition of "Phantom Skin" is, unsurprisingly, a secret, but it is known to contain nanotechnology compounds, including graphene, which has properties that can mask or absorb heat signatures.
