4M Tactical has delivered thermal camouflage suits from the “Gift for Putin” fundraising campaign
Prague (January 29, 2026) – The fundraising campaign for the 4M Tactical Ghillie Suits designed for thermal camouflage, manufactured by 4M Tactical from Colt CZ Group, ranked among the most successful projects of the “Gift for Putin” (“Dárek pro Putina”) initiative last year. Funds for a total of 333 camouflage suits were raised in just two weeks. Today, a symbolic set of this thermal camouflage equipment was formally presented at the Ukrainian Embassy in Prague to Mr. Vasyl Zvarych, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to the Czech Republic, marking the successful completion of the project.
“I would like to sincerely thank Colt CZ Group, 4M Tactical, the Gift for Putin initiative, InfraHex and Respilon, and all citizens of the Czech Republic who participated in this donation campaign. Your solidarity, generosity, and support have a direct impact on protecting Ukrainian defenders on the front line. We greatly value our cooperation, which over time has demonstrated an exceptional level of technological innovation, professionalism, and human responsibility. The 4M Tactical Ghillie Suit is an example of a modern solution that helps reduce battlefield risks and increases soldiers’ chances of survival and successful mission completion. This is also a strong moral gesture that shows Ukraine is not alone in resisting Russian aggression. Thank you all for your continued support and trust. This assistance has a real and measurable effect on both Ukraine’s defensive capability and the security of Europe as a whole,” stated Vasyl Zvarych, Ambassador of Ukraine to the Czech Republic.
“I am proud that 4M Tactical has joined Sellier & Bellot and Česká zbrojovka from Colt CZ Group in supporting the Ukrainian armed forces. I would also like to thank Mr. Vasyl Zvarych for his long-standing support of Czech–Ukrainian cooperation,” said Radek Musil, Chief Executive Officer of Colt CZ Group.
The 4M Tactical Ghillie Suit is designed to camouflage personnel or equipment not only from visual detection, but above all from thermal surveillance. Rather than blocking heat, it disperses it, significantly reducing the risk of detection by thermal imaging systems. At the same time, the soldier does not overheat, allowing for prolonged use without compromising comfort or safety.
The suits funded through the Gift for Putin initiative were delivered to the Ukrainian armed forces in December of last year at manufacturing cost and provided on a 1+1 basis. This means that for every suit financed through the fundraising campaign, 4M Tactical provided an additional suit free of charge.
“I would like to thank all the donors to the Gift for Putin fundraising campaign who, through their contributions, have supported the efforts of the Ukrainian defenders in resisting the Russian aggression, as well as the Ukrainian side for the trust placed in our camouflage suits. I am pleased that innovative Czech products are helping to save lives on the battlefield,” added Radek Duchek, CEO of 4M Tactical.
