Abstract: A net support system for supporting a net may include a support pole configured to hold up a net, one or more stakes configured to hold the net to a ground surface; and a shape disrupter configured to interface with the support pole and to hold up the net. The support pole and each of the one or more stakes are non-metallic, non-conductive, and radar transparent. Each of the one or more stakes may have a central rib. A storage case may be provided for storing the plurality of shape disrupters, the plurality of support poles, and the plurality of stakes.

Abstract: A shape disrupter for a net support system may have a conical body and an elliptical shape in plan view. The shape disrupter may have low thermal signature and low weight. The shape disrupter may be stackable. The shape disrupter may have a protrusion on the shape disrupter for fixing each of the shape disrupters in place during stacking. The shape disrupter may have cutouts or openings to reduce the weight and thermal signature of the shape disrupter. The shape disrupter of the present disclosure may cooperate with support poles or nets to provide a support system for large nets or screens.
