Hello All,
These are know as CIPS, or Combat Identification Panels, they are an
improvement over the ones used in Desert Storm. There are also other forms
of panels and markings out there that I see know one has spotted yet. A
free soda at Amps to the person that does.

> Interesting developement in the war, these air ID panels. They don't look
to be too elaborate. Does anyone have any info on them. How do they
function exactly. Are they merely some kind of passive reflector for the
night vision equipment? Are they electrical in any way? Where are they
generaly located on armour, and other vehicles. Do all units really have
them? Interesting that it seems any US vehicles modeled from this war will
include them. Nuances abound I am sure, just what we like to study.
