OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
A commonly-used tool of the CRAF, the camouflage netting is a standard add-on for their vehicle fleets as well as being a common sight covering CRAF field installations and fortifications. Some creative troops and officers wear cut-up netting to help camouflage themselves. This is a mainstay amongst the CRAF's forces in the field. However, a note to those using it, this is not a cloak of invisibility, it makes detection much, much harder, but not impossible.
