    That helicopter looks 3d. Also wouldnt super expensive thermal image thingies see paint different? Also i think people are saying it because the damage doesn’t look the same in thermal as it does in normal vision. Also also, there’s a shadow (or really, a cooler spot on the ground because of shadow), that’d be hard to paint for thermal.

      The blades don’t appear to move an inch.

      But also just as we have paints in different colours it’s feasible to have paints that reflect differing amounts of IR. However, I’m quite skeptical of this actually being the case here.

      Overall I’m skeptical of the idea of the US shooting paint on the ground because it’s just too good to be true. I’d like to see something more concrete, no pun intended.
