Ownership: Rowan Vane
Intent: Is it for personal use for Rowan Vane. To be used for camouflage when on missions.
Model/Name: Ghillie suit is a type of camouflage material.Type: Suit is a type of camouflage
Power Supply: NA
Sensors: NA
Size: covers a person and light to medium armor.
Composition: Ghillie suits can be constructed in several different ways. Some military services make them of rough flaps of fabric material or jute twine attached to a poncho. Hunting ghillie suits can be made of natural and other artificial materials as well as the ones listed before.
Description: A ghillie suit is a type of camouflage clothing designed to resemble the background environment such as foliage, snow or sand. Typically, it is a net or cloth garment covered in loose strips of burlap, cloth or twine, sometimes made to look like leaves and twigs, and optionally augmented with scraps of foliage from the area.
Snipers, hunters and nature photographers may wear a ghillie suit to blend into their surroundings and conceal themselves from enemies. The suit gives the wearer's outline a three-dimensional breakup, rather than a linear one. When manufactured correctly, the suit will move in the wind in the same way as surrounding foliage. Some ghillie suits are made with light and breathable material that allows a person to wear a suit over his gear.
High-quality ghillie suits are made by hand; most military snipers generally construct their own unique suits. Manufactured ghillie suits can be assembled from up to six pieces. Proper camouflage requires the use of natural materials present in the environment in which a sniper will operate. Making a ghillie suit from scratch is time-consuming, and a detailed, high-quality suit can take weeks or even months to manufacture and season. Ghillie suits can be constructed in several different ways. Some military services make them of rough flaps of fabric material or jute twine attached to a poncho. Hunting ghillie suits can be made of natural and other artificial materials as well as the ones listed before. The old republic military ghillie suits are often built using either a clothing, or a jump suit or some other one-piece coverall as the base.
On the base, rough webbing made of durable, stainable fabric like material is attached. A nearly invisible material like clear line can be used to sow each knot of net to the fabric (often with a drop of glue for strength). The jute is applied to the netting by tying groups of 5 to 10 strands of a color to the netting with simple knots, skipping sections to be filled in with other colors. The webbing is then seasoned by dragging it behind a vehicle, leaving it to soak in mud, or even applying manure to make it smell "earthy." Once on location, the ghillie suit is customized with twigs, leaves, and other elements of the local foliage as much as possible, although these local additions must be changed every few hours, due to wilting of green grasses or branches.
Intent: High-quality ghillie suits are use to camouflage the person, The further you are the harder it is to see the person wearing the suit. The fabric material can be made of anti electronic detection treated material. Making it harder for electronic devices to detect the person. An example would be useing a scanner with a 100m range they would not detect the person until 50m and with eye sight at 25 m.
