Yep- stealth has arrived. Covered with ceramic tiles costing a out a hundred bucks apiece, ran with cooling and heating elements, hooked up to a comouter and thermal camera's, it can alter it's tempature, even whilst moving to match anything in it's files or scanned with it's ball shaped sensor. Granted, it's at it's best at 500m out, and as the tiles get damaged, the effectiveness drops, this can be a huge advantage for the vehicle it's built into.

Last week MajorPo sent me a link to a video showing this technology in action:
