CORE Survival Military Strobes | Stop Friendly Fire | Vibrating Laser Warning & IR IFF

CORE Survival: The Unseen Signal That Keeps You Alive

When it’s dark and chaos erupts, the biggest threat can be not knowing who is who. CORE Survival Military Strobes are not flashlights; they are a silent language of light, built to save lives by answering two critical questions on the battlefield: "Are you a friend?" and "Am I being targeted?" For the modern warfighter, from airborne troops securing a drop zone to ground troops in close quarters, these strobes are a must-have piece of gear for staying safe and maintaining the upper hand.

Identify Friend or Foe (IFF): The Lifesaver on Your Helmet

On a high-stakes operation, confusion is deadly. The most tragic mistake is a friendly fire incident, and that's where CORE Survival Military helmet-mounted lights prove their worth. This is the heart of Identify Friend or Foe (IFF). These strobes emit signals, often in infrared (IR) light, that are invisible to the naked eye but shine like a lighthouse to anyone on your team using night vision.

It’s a simple but vital job: the strobe silently screams, "I'm one of you." This allows your squad to track each other's positions, helps pilots and drone operators know where the friendlies are, and keeps everyone coordinated when the shit hits the fan. CORE Military Strobes are designed for this single purpose, to cut through the fog of war and make sure you and your team have each other's six. They are a critical tool for preventing blue-on-blue engagements and ensuring everyone comes home.

Designator Threat Alert (DTA): The Tap on Your Shoulder That Saves Your Life

One of the newest and most terrifying dangers on the modern battlefield is being "lased" or targeted by an enemy you can't see. CORE Survival met this threat head-on with its groundbreaking Designator Threat Alert (DTA) technology, found in advanced CORE Survival Multi-Function Lights.

This isn't just a marking strobe; it's a personal defense system. The DTA models have built-in sensors that can detect when they are being painted by an enemy laser designator from ground troops or aircraft. When it detects a threat, it sends a silent, vibrating alert to a small unit placed inside your helmet. It's like getting a tap on the shoulder that tells you to take cover, right now.

That split-second warning is the difference between reacting and getting hit. You can even run the DTA system in "blackout mode," where no light is emitted, but the threat detection is still active. This gives you a fighting chance to survive a deadly surprise without ever giving away your position.
