insulation blanket

Una idea que casi había funcionado consistía en cubrir los tanques con una manta de aislamiento térmico, para impedir que los helicópteros detectaran el calor por el que localizaban a su presa inmóvil, pero el problema era el cañón principal del tanque, que resultaba difícil de ocultar y las mantas, que eran como un edredón individual con el que se intentara cubrir una cama doble, nunca llegaron a funcionar de forma realmente satisfactoria.
One idea that had almost worked was to lay a thermal-insulating blanket over the tanks so as to deny the helicopters the heat signature by which they hunted their motionless prey, but the problem there was the tank's main gun tube, which had proved impractical to conceal, and the blankets had never really worked properly, any more than a twin-bed coverlet could be stretched over a king-size bed.
