Ukrainian snipers hit exposed targets

FLIR footage released by Ukrainian snipers conducting reconnaissance and harassment operations near Toretsk shows several attacks against exposed Russian infantry. The infantrymen, not realizing that they were being observed by well trained shooters, presented themselves as targets of opportunity and were eliminated as a result. What this video highlights well is the need for future uniforms to thermally mask front-line infantry. Thermal optics have now reached a stage that where even extremely cheap optics make spotting human heat signatures incredibly simple.
