More on the Russian anti-aircraft countermeasures
2022-03-16
[MSN] Russia has deployed a mystery munition in Ukraine that's stumped ballistic experts.

The munitions are decoys meant to trick air-defense radars and heat-seeking missiles, the New York Times reported, and are released from Iskander-M short-range ballistic missiles. They are each about a foot long and shaped like a dart with an orange tail, American intelligence officials say.

The devices produce radio signals to confuse enemy radars attempting to locate the missiles, and they also contain a heat source to attract other missiles.
