A device for shielding a heated surface from infra-red detection through an opening adjacent to the heated surface. The device includes a gas-conducting member, which is adapted to receive heated gases, and has an exterior surface, an interior surface, an inlet for receipt of heated gases from the opening, and an outlet for the discharge of gases. The gas-conducting member has a configuration which blocks the inlet to the member from line-of-sight view through the outlet to the member. Additionally, the device draws cooling air over the exterior surface of the gas-conducting member. The cooling air may then be mixed with the heated gases within the gas conducting member. This provides cooling of the gas-conducting member to prevent the member from being visible to infra-red detection and may also provide cooling of the gases which are discharged from the outlet of the gas-conducting member by mixing of the heated gases with the cooling air.
