由Tracor航天公司研制的Ⅳ型超轻型伪装网系统(ULCANS)产品验证和作战试验,已于1998年9月底结束,该计划是由美陆军通信电子司令部夜视电子传感器处管理的一项紧急需求计划。 ULCANS将取代现已装备部队的轻型伪装屏蔽系统(LCSS,70年代研制),可更好地保护高度机动的或半机动的装备,对付越来越多的多谱威胁传感器。除了具有与LCSS相同的可视、雷达以及超近红外波谱伪装能力外,新产品扩展了2.5μm的近红外背景,具有强隐蔽作用,通过屏蔽可减少42％的热辐射。新产品易于安装,雷达吸波材料涂复的伪装网直接与网基连接,容易隐蔽,而且比LCSS轻26％。 The Type IV Ultralight Camouflage Network System (ULCANS) product verification and operational test, developed by Tracor Space, ended in late September 1998 and was an urgent requirement managed by the Night Vision Electronics Sensor at the US Army Communications Electronics Command. plan. The ULCANS will replace the now-armed light camouflage shielding system (LCSS, developed in the 1970s) to better protect highly mobile or semi-mobile equipment against more and more multispectral threat sensors. In addition to the same visual, radar and ultra-near-infrared spectral camouflage capabilities as the LCSS, the new product extends the 2.5μm near-infrared background with a strong concealment that reduces the thermal radiation by 42% through shielding. The new product is easy to install and the camouflage mesh coated with radar absorbing material is directly attached to the mesh, easily concealed and 26% lighter than the LCSS.
