@Ooops @LaFinlandia The paint will certainly make detection harder. Night vision is impressive, yet still is worse than daylight in every way.

A narrower field of view, loss of colors, need to manually focus, loss of depth perception*, and increased difficulty in using weapons are all downsides. Black paint against a night sky won't make any of those better.

(*can vary based on the device/number of tubes)

I’m honestly a little surprised that there aren’t like “emp rifles” or something that can’t just handle this.
