Abstract: A conventional broad-band camouflage material comprising a base layer, a reflective metal layer and a paint layer which imitates the visible and near IR spectral reflective properties of a natural background and contains binders which are transparent in the far IR range, is improved in the radar spectral range by providing the metal layer in the form of spaced squares or rectangles whose long dimension is smaller than 1/2 lambda of the largest radar wavelength used for reconnaissance and larger than 1/2 lambda of the radar wavelength used for homing missiles and bullets. The base layer consists of woven strips of polyethylene material forming squares or rectangles which are metallized on both sides and then covered with polyethylene film coated with liquid polyethylene adhesive. The adhesive fills in the spaces between the strips thus isolating the squares or rectangles from each other and preventing conductivity.
