'''Camouflage cloaks''' are devices employed by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] as a medium of concealing its soldiers in certain environments. Though crude by the standards of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]'s [[active camouflage]] technology, the camouflage cloak still gives [[human]]s an advantage.
==Overview==
Camouflage cloaks take the form of simple cloaks that can be worn over most [[armor]] and equipment, even including [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]]. When worn, the cloak serves to [[camouflage]] the wearer's thermal signature from sensing devices.{{Ref/Reuse|FOR20}}


The camouflage cloak can be worn over most [[armor]]s, including advanced suits such as [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR]] armor. These cloaks not only contain passive camouflage patterns to fool inattentive enemies, the cloak also masks the thermal signatures of the wearer to avoid detection.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 182''</ref>
==Operational history==
 
Camouflage cloaks were employed by [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-II]] [[Blue Team]] during [[Operation: OCEAN BREAKER]].{{Ref/Reuse|FOR20}}
Similar technology, [[photoreactive panel]]s, was physically integrated into the [[Semi-Powered Infiltration Armor|SPI armor]], an armor system used by members of the [[SPARTAN-III Program]],<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 14''</ref> as well as [[UNSC prowler|UNSC Prowlers]] in form of [[texture buffer]]s.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 291''</ref>
