U.S. Marine Corps Commandant, Gen. David Berger has stressed the importance of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities and in his report "Force Design 2030" states: "The hider-versus finder competition is real. Losing this competition has enormous and potentially catastrophic consequences. This makes success in the reconnaissance / counter-reconnaissance mission an imperative for success."
Gen. Eric Smith, assistant commandant of the US Marine Corps referred to the psychological element of fear and uncertainty: " You never know when you're being tracked by an eye in the sky that's just waiting for the signal to strike. And you have to drop your signature. If you're seen, either because you radiate, or because you're physically seen, you're targeted almost immediatelly."
Nothing could describe more accurately modern warfare and STEALTH becomes more valuable than ever.
Stealth is focusing in reducing the thermal contrast between a platform's signature and its background ΔΤ hence lowering the probability of platform's detection and reducing drastically the distance at which military platforms can be detected by electromagnetic systems, especially Thermal/IR systems and threats.

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY: SEE - WITHOUT BEING SEEN
Unlike any other military paint, CARC and IR camouflage paints, we provide an anti-detection & anti-targeting technology coating that protects military assets and critical infrastructure against NIGHT VISION &THERMAL weapon systems such as anti-tank missiles (ATMs, ATGMs, ATWs), missiles, UAVs, UCAVs, DRONES, Thermal Imaging Sights (TIS), FLIRs, loitering ammunitions and more.
Our stealth capability coating system is in full compliance with STANAG 4319: "Counter Surveillance Requirements for Main Battle Tanks - Infrared/Thermal Aspects 1.9 - 14 microns waveband" with the objective to minimize DT platform / background and consequently minimize detection and to degrade performance of heat seeking anti-tank missiles.
Our stealth paints are also in compliance with the technical / durability part of STANAG 4477: "SPECIFICATION FOR PAINTS AND PAINT SYSTEMS" and they have been successful on extensive and exhaustive tests and evaluations in the field around the world in various environmental harsh conditions with temperatures ranging from minus - 25º C to plus + 55º C and on different backgrounds & terrains (forest, desert, rocky, snowy, jungle, bushy) against the most modern THERMAL/IR Observation & Targeting Weapon Systems (man-portable & platform-based) working in NWIR, SWIR, MWIR (3-5), LWIR (8-14).

INTERMAT produces tailorable military colors in matte finish as per customer requirements and we have developed hundreds of shades from the standard military colors such as:
Desert, Sand, Tan, Forest Green, Olive Drab, Mud, Brown, Black, Grey, Naval Blue, White, etc.
Despite the different technology we use and the special formulation of multiple ingredients therein, Intermat Low Observable Coatings are in very close match to RAL & FS 595 color coding systems.
