reading stuff about dubai, one article said they would only have been better prepared if they had infrared goggles.

how do troops guard against that being used on themselves?

Same way as for visible light, but the uniforms are still in test stages:
Quote:
.....any clothing that's treated with its IR/NV-Stealth tech will become invisible to any/all night vision equipment/night observation devices (NVE/NODs) and thermal/IR sensors/viewers, as well as untargetable by IR laser designators sighting equipment (i.e. laser sights), when the wearer flips the switch to "On".
