Venom's is superior

Actually I'm curious. Is there any material, tech combo for an urban Flir defeating outfit that can actually be utilized as combat wear. I'm not talking Carl Carwindows. Something that could cover body heat without being ridiculously bulky, or causing it's wearer to overheat just by walking.

>>33317071
Anything that prevents your body heat from radiating out into the world will necessarily be a bit of an oven and lead quickly to heatstroke if the wearer exerts himself too much.

>Do real sneaking suits exist or is it just tacticool?
Depends entirely on the situation and environment.

There's no generic stealth suit, that's retarded. To blend in with the terrain you wear camo. To blend in with people you wear a disguise.

I'm going to say yes, in a way. Seals and other underwater SOF use scuba suits which look similar and I'm pretty sure are the visual inspiration for sneak suits.

Consider that when it was first shown in Metal Gear Solid it was shown with one was when Snake was scuba diving into Shadow Moses.

You can't convert heat into anything else without generating even more heat in the process.

>black clothing
A mistake a lot of people make when they're trying to be sneaky at night (e.g. kids egging houses or trespassing to explore abandoned buildings) is wearing black. It's better than wearing a light color but black silhouettes still stand out in shadows since it's unlikely that they're going to be pitch black. Dark blue/navy are better bets, as are dark browns and greens.

>>33317487
Break, bend, spin it around in circles till it gets lost for a minute, whatever needs to happen. That's /K/ARPA's job.

If you were able to come up with such a tech, you'd basically be breaking the 3rd law. It would be the biggest invention since fire.

The sneaking suits, aside from 5 and 4 to a lesser degree never seem to have been focused on sneaking. In 1 and 2 they were scuba suits. In 3 it was some sort of space suit for one of those low orbit space flights of the 60's, in 4 it was more a muscle suit to keep old snake from being too weak to do shit.

Were the abs and pecs really necessary?
I feel like they could have gone without it.

They exist. A Japanese professor was working on one a while back. The ones I've seen use a large network of tiny cameras and fiber optic fibers to mimic the color of whatever is behind them. The major flaw is that they heat up massively and consume a lot of power, so for now they aren't field ready.

Also you can spot the massive blob of distortion when they move quickly.

>A) wires on shoulders/legs
They're not wires, they're called Capstan tubes. You see them a lot in high-altitude flying suits (never space suits) from the 50's and early 60's. Those kind of suits are known as partial pressure suits. They won't help you in hard vacuum (a lot of them didn't even have fully sealing helmets) but if you suddenly loose pressure at altitude a system of air-filled bladders squeezes you to make up for the lack of external air pressure.

The tubes down the sides of the body would inflate to instantly pull the suit tight against your body, while leaving it looser for comfort if the cockpit doesn't loose pressurization. (There's also usually lacing so each pilot can adjust his suit to make it fit better.)
>B)metal rings on forearms (I guess they seal the suit, but is visible for a reason?
Those are locking rings (or zippers, depends on the suit) for the gloves. They're still there on modern suits, but the baggy white thermal layers cover them for protection.
>C)round thingies on thighs
Depends on the suit. Either a pressure gauge, or a pressure-relief valve.

Gorkas didn't exist in 1998. The Russians were still using Afghankas exclusively until a couple years ago, and Sniper Wolf is Kurdish, not Russian.

Ideally a "stealth suit," would be low-friction, well fitting, darkly colored, and leave no fibers behind.
-which are principally covered by regular clothes.

Hypothetically some kind of special padding that minimized the sound of foot-falls or shoulders and knees and such contacting walls or floors, but such padding on the sole of footware could compromise traction. Even if it were internal and super compact you could still lose some push-off.
