The PL0-01
prototype tank is a three person, 35 tonne tank could become a titanium light weight. As it is covered in a mesh of specially
developed tiles, it can make itself look like a car. As this could be initiated in-front of any other object - by simply by changing the temperature of the tiles.
The idea of the PL-01 is to
try and eliminate the infrared, radar and visual signature of the traditional
tank. Now you see it as the BAE Adaptec camouflage system expected to be used
on the tank showing normal images (left) the disguised image (right) Hexagonal
plates. that cover the tank can control their heat, and the temperature of the
entire tank.
If they adjust to ambient levels, the tank effectively disappears
from heat imaging sensors normally used to spot vehicles on the battlefield. The
wafers can also be manipulated in temperature. acting as a screen and allowing
controllers to control exactly how it looks. This allows for the tank to use
active infrared camouflage, such as tiger striping its infrared signature in
the jungle, or as a car in the city. The
stealth tank that can disguise itself to look like a car and appear to
disappear at the touch of a button.

Tank covered is
mesh of thermal tiles that can disguise how it looks. Allows tank to avoid
infrared missiles - and fool soldiers looking for thermal images.
A Polish firm
has revealed a 'stealth tank' that can fool enemy forces by changing its shape
on infrared images using smart tiles. Built by Polish firm Obrum and BAE, it
weighs 35 tonnes. The key to its stealth capabilities are a series of hexagonal
plates. These can control the tank's temperature.
If they adjust to ambient
levels' the tank effectively disappears from heat imaging sensors normally used
to spot vehicles on the battlefield. By adjusting the sensors, the vehicle can
even be disguised as a car. The 7m long tank has a crew of three, and is
expected to take to the battlefield in 2018. The tank's turret is controlled
from within the tank, and is decked out with sensors allowing it to 'see' in
any direction. This tank can also blend into the background.

The PL-01 also lowers its infrared signature
through cooling and dispersing the exhaust from its 940 hp diesel engine. The
outline of the tank - using a 'mesh' on its shell, the tank can disguise its
shape, appearing as a car or other vehicle to scanners. The tank has a plethora
of weapons, from a traditional gun turret to missiles launched from its sides. The
radar sensor heads dotted around the tank allow it to deflect radar and disguise
itself
