Thermal concealment is moving from specialist gear into wider procurement. The US Marine Corps is seeking a multispectral overgarment that can reduce visual and infrared detection while still meeting strict requirements on weight, durability, and field usability.
-
Denmark is upgrading simulation as core military infrastructure. Its seven-year OneArc deal turns synthetic training into a long-cycle software, terrain-data, and support programme rather than a standalone procurement of training devices.
