Stealth tank camouflages into normal car on infrared images
By Jeong Ji-su
A Polish firm has developed a “stealth tank” that can transform into a normal car on infrared images by changing the temperature of the tiles, reported the Daily Mail Monday.
The PL0-01 prototype is a 35-ton tank, capable of loading three people.
The tank is covered in specially developed smart tiles. The hexagonal tiles control the heat and when adjusted, the tank can completely look like a normal car on temperature sensing devices.
The panels can also let out messages on the side of the tank with heat.
The tank can also load weapons, from simple guns to missiles launched from its sides.
This stealth tank is expected to take to the battlefield in 2018.
