PLA Deploys Decoy S300 Batteries to Fool the Indians

[FOOLS_NIGHTMARE]

In another out of the box technique to confuse the enemy, PLA has extensively deployed balloon decoys of S300 batteries near the LAC. Below is the PLA Northwest Desert Air Defense Command balloon decoys deployments.

Those are some damn good decoys lol ... even I mistook them for real batteries initially.

i think this is a wrong technique by PLA.

Actually that's an old British trick.

The Serbians used decoys to good effect against NATO.


Eleventh is the issue of decoys. The Serbs, like many armies, deployed decoys as part of their tactics. The use of decoys did not make the Serbian army exceptional, nor were NATO airmen necessarily naive for striking them. At medium altitude, it is difficult to discern a decoy from a valid target. The method often employed was not to be overly concerned about differentiating between the two, but to strike any targets located. If the target disappeared when struck, it was likely a decoy. The point is that when targets are rare and weapons plentiful, it is preferable to waste some bombs on decoys rather than allow valid targets to escape. At the end of the war, the fact that destroyed decoys were found or that derelict hulks in the open had been struck multiple times proved neither the brilliance of Serbian tactics nor the naiveté of NATO airmen. It instead revealed the shortcomings of some analysts who reached broad conclusions over the ineffectiveness of airpower based on the anecdotal evidence of these individually ineffective airstrikes.

This is not to say that decoys do not provide challenges for air operations. Given the increased reliance on a limited number of relatively costly precision-guided weapons, along with lessons from the recent air campaign against the so-called Islamic State, where weapons availability became an issue, the impact of decoys on the efficient utilization of ordnance may be a concern in future operations.

The Dayton Peace Accords in 1996 settled the Bosnian civil war but left unresolved the ethnic conflict in Kosovo, the semi-autonomous region in southern Serbia. By 1998, clashes between Serbian police

Do you really need decoys to FOOL Indian soldiers when they do something this?

Indian army mistakes planets for 'Chinese spy drones'

Mysterious 'aircraft' were sighted 329 times hovering over a lake on the border between the two countries

1.4b strong India gets scared at birthday balloons - flowing from Pak of course!!! Here, we're talking about sophisticated "huge" balloons....

The Indian "balloons" are quite "rickety" compared to the world standard.....

Hahaha told you. Indians are mobilizing their entire army into the freezing heights of the Tibetian plateau and dishing out billions in frantic purchases of arms to curry favour with foreign nations and China is just putting up strawmen for the crows and watching the Indians jump up and down in panic.

Still they are unable to defeat even a handful of regular unarmed and barely armed Chinese border guards. Clowns.

China's industrial out-put is capable of turning out thousands upon thousands of these decoys, and putting these on frontline will quickly deplete India's 10 days only ammo reserve if they start to shoot at decoys.

Destroying balloons will still be celebrated victoriously by indians...kid you not
