Westsailor 10 Posted May 5, 2011 Since I'm still discovering Arma 2/CO maybe it's in there already. Anyone thought of adding IR chemlights to helmets for night ops? Be much easier to ID friendlies that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shay_gman 272 Posted May 5, 2011 Mmm something like ACE team thought about... http://ace.dev-heaven.net/wagn/Features Look at the Chem lights, ACE is your friend ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ollie1983 10 Posted May 5, 2011 Soldiers are advised not to smoke at night. The tiny glow of a cigarette can be an ideal cue for a sniper. I am buggered if I would want a light on my head at night.;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jagheterjan 10 Posted May 5, 2011 Sometimes you just want to be seen by the lads in the gunships overhead or other BLUFOR elements nearby. That's why you might want to put a clunky battery-driven IR light-emitting gadget thingy on your brain bucket if you are allowed to carry and use one.

Task 1 Posted January 11, 2012 That's the trade off, seen by air assets, but seen by enemy as well. Timing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont glow in visible light, but are brighter than normal cylumes in NV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
