The Russian company HiderX is developing an "invisibility suit" designed to camouflage and protect Russian military personnel from Ukrainian thermal imaging equipment, according to a report from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

It is noted that the suit is coated with an undisclosed chemical composition and is entirely based on Russian technologies.

HiderX claims that the suit weighs approximately 350 grams and can fit into a pocket.

Trials of the innovation are expected to be completed by the end of January 2024.

It's worth mentioning that Russia used a four-ton P-35 missile, adopted in 1962, for strikes against Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the United States does not rule out the possibility that the Russian Federation has begun using ballistic missiles from North Korea for attacks on Ukraine.
