This guide, presented by an experienced instructor from FalconClaw, explains how to effectively use a military poncho as a thermal countermeasure. It highlights that while ponchos worn directly on the body retain heat and are visible on thermal, they can serve as an effective screen when positioned away from the body. The instruction emphasizes that issued ponchos are a cheap yet potent tool, provided one understands their correct application.

This video demonstrates how a standard Uvex clear face shield can effectively mask a human heat signature from thermal imaging. Testing shows significant reduction in thermal visibility when wearing the shield, especially when combined with natural cover like foliage. The shield is helmet-rail compatible and made of clear polycarbonate.
