"In early stages of their production, these patches were easily available for civilians to purchase, and the Taliban and al-Qaeda bought them or stole them from fallen ISAF soldiers since the coalition attack aircraft were not authorized to fire upon anyone wearing the patch.

Since this came to light, the US State Department has restricted all export of these patches. Since they are popular with Airsofters, some replica versions have been produced which are not infrared receptive."

Heh, they aren't hard to duplicate. All it takes is the right colours combined with common materlials. 71.173.20.219 (talk) 23:54, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
