While much is said about getting the latest equipment and having the ability to hide it, in the fog of war, deception can be huge in terms of absorbing attacks and being able to respond to enemy aggression.

To that end, what is Pakistan doing about decoys?
I know this probably a classified subject, But I have never heard anything about Pakistan doing this.

The Serbs used this wooden models of tanks and planes in fields so NATO would think they were hitting real targets, and by the end of the war, NATO had barely destroyed any real Serb ground forces in Kosovo

This what NATO Saw

The Chinese have done better, and I think we should consider their products

If known Pakistani Units were moved away from bases and Moving Decoys were deployed in their place, an Indian attack in the first days of any war would be all for naught.

Pakistan could use Decoys tanks ahead of its real tanks when confronting a large Indian tank column. The decoys would absorb enemy shot but in doing so allow Pakistani forces to locate Indian forces. In response, Pakistan could launch artillery missiles, with Sensor fused weapons skeets in them, or bring in aircraft with Chinese version of the Brimstone or Brimstone 2 to knock out those attacking Indian tanks.

Decoys of the quality described in the Chinese video are good enough to fool sensors at least 30 meters away, which Pakistan should look into integrating into any strategy. Minimal cost with huge pay offs. A True Force Multiplier
