Although somewhat cost-prohibitive, they are no longer as unobtainable as they once were and can be had for under $2000 in some cases.

      Outstanding! I’ll definitely be watching Beez Combat Systems for when their Spectralflage cloak is released. A bit pricey but if it does what they claim, well worth it.
