Generation III NZ IR Flag — 500D MULTICAM® Cordura / IR Solas
New Zealand identification that works at night. The Generation III NZ IR Flag is built from laser-cut 500D MULTICAM® Cordura with IR Solas fabric — strictly reflective in the infrared spectrum, invisible to the naked eye.
✕ Economy IR Lights You Up Under White Light
Cheap IR patches reflect visible light too — so the flag that's meant to mark you covertly for aircraft glows like a beacon under a torch or vehicle headlights, blowing the position you were trying to protect. Gen 3 SOLAS IR reflects in the infrared spectrum only: dark and subdued to the eye, bright as day through an NVD.
◈ Gen 3 SOLAS IR Retro-Reflective Material
Built with mil-spec SOLAS IR retro-reflective material. Unlike economy IR — which reflects both visible and infrared light and can appear reflective under normal conditions — Gen 3 covert IR reflects only in the infrared spectrum. Under normal lighting it remains visually subdued. When illuminated by an NVD's IR emitter, infrared light is retro-reflected directly back to the source, making the NZ flag clearly identifiable for IFF purposes without any visible-light signature.
It won't give your position away. This is strictly infrared-reflective SOLAS — not a generic 3M reflective product. It returns a signature only when it is both viewed through a night-vision device and hit by an IR light source, retro-reflecting straight back to that emitter. It does not glow in the dark. It's an IFF (identification friend-or-foe) panel — it tells friendly NV-equipped viewers who you are, and nothing more.
Infrared-only. Visually subdued. Mil-spec.
Visible Light — Native
Under Night Vision — IR Retro-Reflect

Strider designs
Better kit, priced fairly
As our kit has got better, our prices have moved with it. We still come in under most of the market for the same quality, and every Strider design is specced and tested by us before it goes on sale.
Orders ship from New Zealand, so they reach Kiwi customers faster and cheaper than kit ordered from offshore.
