Background: In a landmark collaboration, Allanean Defense Exports, alongside partners from Greater Prussia, is honored to announce its selection as the primary liaison in a groundbreaking multi-trillion New Dornalian dollar defense initiative with the Romani-Marshite Union, dubbed the Cloppenhagen Initiative. This strategic alliance is set to revolutionize the defense capabilities of the Harmonic Kingdom of Akila, focusing on the development of advanced uniforms, weaponry, and assorted gear specifically designed for the sapient equines that form the backbone of Akila's defense forces.

At the forefront of this initiative is the introduction of an innovative tactical garment engineered for sapient equines. This cutting-edge attire is crafted to offer unparalleled protection and stealth capabilities on the modern battlefield, featuring state-of-the-art materials that provide effective concealment from infrared detection and radar, ensuring the safety and strategic advantage of Akila's noble equine warriors.

Prioritizing safety and efficacy, Allanean Arms initiated rigorous testing phases utilizing non-sapient equines. This approach was twofold: to guarantee the non-toxicity and comfort of the IR-absorbing paint used in the garment and to optimize resource allocation. The culmination of this meticulous testing process is a versatile tactical garment that meets the dual demands of sapient equine soldiers and traditional cavalry units alike, setting a new standard for combat attire in the Harmonic Kingdom of Akila and beyond.
Technology: Building on our commitment to innovation in defense solutions, Allanean Arms proud to unveil the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket, a pinnacle of equine tactical equipment designed for the modern battlefield. Crafted from a durable, flexible rip-stop fabric, the Waldtrappe is engineered to withstand the rigors of combat while providing essential protection and camouflage for sapient and non-sapient equines alike.

Available in an array of colors and camouflage patterns, the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket is tailored to suit a variety of environments, ensuring optimal concealment. The fabric is treated with NIR-absorbent dyes, significantly reducing visibility to infrared observation devices, and incorporates materials designed to absorb radar waves, further enhancing the stealth capabilities of equine units.

Functionality meets versatility with the Waldtrappe's full compatibility with MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) accessories, allowing for easy customization and attachment of essential gear. Additionally, the blanket is designed to accommodate ceramic plate inserts, offering an extra layer of protection against ballistic threats.

Safety is paramount, and the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket meets this need by being fire-resistant to standards comparable with the most advanced modern military uniforms. This ensures that equine units are not only camouflaged and protected from ballistic and infrared threats but also safeguarded against the dangers of fire on the battlefield.

In light of the difficulty in providing for ceramic inserts that would protect an equine along all angles of its body while allowing mobility, it was decided to include layers of UHWMPE ballistic weave throughout the entire item. While this has significantly increased the weight of the blanket, (with the base blanket weighing as much as 7 kg), this has been felt as a necessary sacrifice to improve combatant safety. If clients do desire to procure an unarmored version of the Waldtrappe, these are also available but Allanean Arms cannot plausibly recommend them.

In our continuous pursuit to optimize the balance between protection and mobility for equine units, Allanean Arms has integrated layers of UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) ballistic weave into the entire structure of the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket. This decision addresses the complex challenge of providing comprehensive protection for equines from all angles without compromising their inherent agility and mobility on the battlefield.

The integration of UHMWPE ballistic weave, while inevitably increasing the weight of the base blanket to 7 kg, represents a deliberate and considered trade-off to enhance the safety of equine combatants. This advanced material offers substantial ballistic protection, ensuring that equine units are shielded against a wide range of threats they might encounter during operations.

Understanding the diverse needs of our clients, Allanean Arms also offers an unarmored version of the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket. However, given our commitment to the safety and effectiveness of equine units in combat scenarios, we strongly advocate for the armored variant as the preferred choice. The unarmored version, while lighter, does not provide the same level of ballistic protection, and its use is not recommended for environments where threats are imminent.

Maintenance: Continuing the theme of advanced equine protection, it's important for users of the Waldtrappe Recon Horse Blanket to be aware of the care and maintenance required to sustain its high-performance features, particularly the NIR absorbent capabilities. The effectiveness of the NIR absorbent technology is subject to gradual reduction over time, and it can be compromised if the specified maintenance instructions are not strictly followed. Users are advised to carefully review the care instructions labeled on the inside of each Waldtrappe blanket prior to any cleaning process.

In a military context, the maintenance of such specialized equipment is best entrusted to authorized maintenance units or contracted service providers, who are equipped with the knowledge and facilities to properly care for these advanced materials. To ensure the Waldtrappe maintains its optimal protective qualities, it is recommended that the blanket be replaced after six months to a year of active service, depending on the assessment of the maintenance team. This practice ensures that equine units remain effectively shielded in operational environments, maintaining the high standards of safety and performance that Allanean Defense Exports and Allanean Arms are committed to providing.

OOC: As you can see, while the item has been developed for use in a FanT context, none of it contains any ‘magic’ as such, and can be used on your regular horses or ponies or other animals.
