epa11720368 An inflatable decoy of a
M270 MLRS military vehicle is displayed during a media
presentation in Decin, Czech Republic, 11 November 2024 (issued
14 November 2024). Inflatech company from Decin produces hi-end
military decoys designed for training and deception of
reconnaissance and targeting systems of the opponent in combat
ranging from fighters, all kinds of tracked or wheeled vehicles,
tanks, and radars to helicopters, like Leopard 2A4, M1 Abrams,
M142 HIMARS, M270 MLRS, Patriot, F-16, and SU-27. They sell to
customers worldwide in real size. Inflatech is one of the few
manufacturers in the world that produces inflatable deception
targets capable of not only visually and dimensionally mimicking
real machines. Inflatech's deceptive targets can also alone move
independently using small power units, and have electronic
systems that can simulate the operation of real vehicles and
combat vehicles, such as thermal radiation traces, electronic
signals, etc. The company is also working on other innovations
such as remote control and self-propelled versions. Decoys are
also extra lightweight, packable in bags, and easily
transportable by a few soldiers because they are made of
synthetic silk. For example, a replica Leopard 2A4 tank weighs
only 44 kg. A properly trained and experienced operator can
inflate it in a few minutes, as well as deflate it. Inflatech
didn't say the price, but for comparison, the cost of the decoy
is hundreds of times cheaper than a better Russian missile.
Inflatech Chief Executive Vojtech Fresser would not confirm if
their products are sold to Ukraine and being used by the
Ukrainian military against the Russian invasion. However, as an
example, he said that he learned from open sources that a
Russian missile allegedly destroyed a Ukrainian-made Inflatech
M270 MLRS decoy. EPA/MARTIN DIVISEK
