MFC SURVIVAL LTD

Camouflage Systems from MFC Survival Ltd


MFC Survival Ltd has been supplying camouflage systems to the UK Ministry of Defence for a number of years and to other Armed Forces from various countries around the world.

MFC Camouflage Nets are made to the highest standards, giving excellent colour fastness to light, water resistance and abrasion resistant properties. The nets are manufactured from a light-weight material which enables them to be transported and erected with ease, yet they are extremely robust.

MFC Camouflage Nets are suitable for use under all climatic conditions, can be any shape or size to suit customer requirements and have a temperature range of -40 to +70 degrees Centigrade.

 

Sophisticated surveillance techniques used by the modern armies of the world necessitate the use of sophisticated counter - surveillance systems.

Correctly deployed camouflage systems can dramatically reduce the possibility of detection by such equipment and thus ensure the continued protection of invisibility.

 

Camouflage Systems  from MFC Survival Ltd


MFC Camouflage systems offer the following benefits:

  • Flexibility Effective camouflage at long and short ranges. Designed and supplied for use in specific terrain - scrubland, moorland, desert or snow.

  • Adaptability Manufactured to any size and shape.

  • Portability Robust, lightweight. Easy to erect and transport.

  • Concealment sets Concealment sets available for a range of aircraft and helicopters for use in forward combat areas.

  • MoD approved Supplied to the UK Ministry of Defence.

Construction of the MFC Survival Net

As currently favoured by the British Armed Forces, the incised leaf-type camouflage net, so called because the incisions in the garnishing simulate leaves, comprises a large, meshed carrier base net to which garnished material is attached by means of plastic clips. It is usually square or rectangular in shape.


MFC SURVIVAL LTD Concealment Sets

MFC Concealment Sets are purpose-designed camouflage systems used mainly where equipment is difficult to camouflage due to its bulk, such as aircraft, helicopters, artillery, and radar installations.

They are often used when special counter-surveillance measures are considered necessary for the protection of high value tactical equipment.

They are also highly effective when used for rapid camouflage of aircraft and helicopters using temporary landing sites in forward combat areas, allowing for servicing, re-fuelling and re-arming from the concealed positions.

Camouflage Supports
 

Camouflage Systems  from MFC Survival Ltd

Effective camouflage relies upon breaking up sharp regular features that are easily recognisable, and to facilitate this, the camouflage nets can be supplied with Support Poles.

Correctly deployed, these poles can completely alter the contour of equipment being concealed.

MFC camouflage nets can be supplied with supports manufactured from GRP and consist of a mushroom cap and lengths of hollow tubes depending on customer requirements.

These supports are indistinguishable from foliage to infra-red detection equipment as they contain a permanent infrared reflective pigment in NATO green. Therefore, there is nothing that can chip or flake off, and as a result, the cost of maintenance is extremely low.
