Camo-cloak

Vanguard Eliminator with Camo-Cloak^[7]

Camo-cloaks are hooded cloaks composed of a mesh backing, woven with thousands of ribbons of colour shifting and light-absorbing material,^[3] weaved for its durability and ability to help hide the wearer.

Overview

A camo cloak is coated with an absorbent material called Cameleoline, which takes on the colouration of the surroundings, giving the wearer a great deal of individual concealment and, when used by elite stealth experts such as Chief Scout Sergeant Oan Mkoll, can give the wearer near perfect concealment.^[1]

Such cloaks are commonly used by the Tanith First and Only. Commissar Ibram Gaunt was awarded one of these by the soldiers of the regiment.^[1] They are also used by Space Marine Scouts.^[4] On the world Pavonis, camo-cloaks saved Sergeant Learchus and his Scout Squad from being discovered by T'au patrols.^[2] They are also favoured by Deathwatch sharpshooters^[3] and Vanguard Space Marines.^[5]

Eldar Rangers also utilize their own version of Camo-cloaks.^[6]
