This video explores the effectiveness of using hot water-filled bottles as thermal decoys to mask fighting positions in a trench line. The experiment demonstrates that both titanium and plastic bottles filled with hot water can create a thermal signature that mimics an occupied position, potentially drawing enemy observation away from actual personnel. The titanium bottle maintained its heat longer and presented a more convincing thermal signature.

This video explores the effectiveness of suppressor covers in mitigating thermal and visual signatures. The experiment tests various suppressor covers on a rifle equipped with a Silencer Co. Velos suppressor, using thermal imagers and night vision. Key findings indicate that while suppressors generate significant heat, certain covers can reduce immediate thermal detection and visual glow, particularly for initial shots. The Mod Tac Suppressor Shield showed promising results in temperature management and signature reduction.
