Abstract

An Infra-Red suppression device composed of systems designed to alter the infra-red spectrum bands produced by the exhaust plume and airframe friction in order to render infra-red seekers, both active and passive, and infra-red homing missiles ineffective, therefore substantially increasing air-craft and crew survivability, and the BET or battle extension time.
