This video investigates whether Chinese-made counterfeit combat uniforms perform comparably to genuine ones, particularly in their infrared (IR) reflectivity. The content delves into the critical aspect of NIR compliance, testing if these knockoffs will cause the wearer to be visible under night vision devices (NODs). It also examines the potential impact of using optical brightener detergents on these uniforms and analyzes which camouflage patterns and fabrics are more or less detectable in low-light conditions. The video aims to separate myth from reality regarding tactical camouflage effectiveness against modern surveillance technology.
