Let’s take a look at this still
. This still makes it clear that the sniper of our Jiaolong Commando has covered the scope of the Blaser Tactical2 sniper rifle (my own visual inspection) that he uses for comparison. Large mesh. Then why do we have to cover such a layer of cloth?
camouflage and protection
This is the first purpose that everyone can think of, which is to play a role of camouflage and protection. In order to pursue maximum damage, snipers often need to lie in the sniper position for a long time, so they need to camouflage their whole body to reduce the possibility of exposure. Recall the movies and TVs that you have seen. Many snipers will not only disguise themselves with auspicious clothes and other equipment, but also wrap cloth strips on their sniper rifles for this purpose. In addition, the wind and sand in the desert area are relatively large, and the high-power sighting optical system is a precision device, which also requires additional protection.
We can see that the sniper rifle in the movie is not a special desert painting. The black painting is more obvious on the yellow sand, so the sniper should wrap cloth strips to camouflage.
Prevents reflection
This is a small detail that more reflects the detailed design ability of the film production team. You can find that the sniper not only wraps the scope of the scope, but even covers it. This is the high-power sighting optical system of the sniper rifle. Because of the lens, the reflection is more obvious. When the early optical lens coating technology was not developed, the reflected light was as bright as a small flashlight. Even now this problem still exists. There are often such plots in movies. Because of the reflection, the sniper is found by the opponent's sniper and then killed.
In order to prevent the reflection from being discovered by the opponent, it needs to be processed before aiming at the lens. The standard solution is to install a special anti-reflective cover.
If you watch the movie carefully, you will remember that when the snipers of the terrorist organization use the telescope, the telescope is covered with this kind of similar mesh cloth. Will there be readers who also thought it was stupid?
As for why our snipers don't install this kind of anti-reflector directly? This can also confirm a suspicious point discussed by many viewers. That is why the Jiaolong Commando does not use our weapons. The arrangement in the plot is because the mission has a certain particularity, and our equipment is not complete, so all the equipment is supported by the government of Ivia. It's normal to not have this less common accessory, and you can only handle it yourself. Will
not block the line of sight?
does not. Because of the combination of the lens of the scope, the object in front of the lens cannot be imaged, as to how much impact it will have on the aim. There will definitely be an impact. Generally, it will reduce the amount of light entering and darken the field of view. However, the problem should not be big in the environment with sufficient light in the movie. The picture below shows the effect of netizens on the telescope made by netizens.
To sum up,
is not a piercing lens, it has a certain tactical significance.
is mainly for camouflage protection and anti-reflection. After
is covered with this kind of mesh cloth, the field of vision will be dark, but it is not a big problem in the battlefield environment in the movie.
