Mission:
Provides a topically applied camouflage solution for the Soldier in the visible and near-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, as well as protection against thermal imagers and insects.

Description:
Soldiers use Camouflage Face Paint (CFP) on all exposed skin to provide passive camouflage protection in the visible and near-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It also protects against thermal imagers, which operate in the mid- and far-infrared regions of the spectrum. The current camouflage compact is a cosmetic-like container with an acrylic mirror and compartments containing four colors. The improved camouflage container will consist of two sticks of two colors each—one with a DEET additive and one without.
