stealth suit

Covert body covering

A stealth suit is a garment designed to avoid detection, whether by radar, infrared sensors, or visual observation.

The term appears most often in science fiction and video games, where such suits render wearers invisible or nearly so: Activate your stealth suit before entering the compound.

Military and tactical contexts use the term for clothing with reduced heat signatures or radar-absorbing materials.
