If anyone wants to help out, feel free to research which vehicles and handheld smokes should be blocked on thermal and which shouldn't be. With references backing it up fcourse

This type of information helps out a lot if/when we implement this feature.

If you implement infrared smoke grenades, they usually contain white phosphorous, the smoke grenades should be instant explode and smoke spread, not slow smoke build like the current smoke grenades. USA has one white phosphorous smoke grenade, called M15.

This type of smoke grenade is favored for its ability to produce a very dense and nearly instantaneous cloud of white concealment smoke as compared to the more common solid-filler grenades which expel a slower stream of smoke over a period of roughly 1 minute.
When it comes to armored vehicles, using infrared smoke screen should REMOVE THE LASER ON YOU (if you have been lased by e.g GTLD)

which require extremely fast concealment in the event they are targeted by laser guided anti-tank missiles and
I suggest that all modern MBT should be equipped with infrared smokes.

This is awesome news. I'd guess that most (if not all) tanks would have IR blocking smoke, not sure about handheld smoke nades though.
