The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced the discovery by Ukrainian intelligence of inflatable models of Russian tanks in the Zaporozhye direction

The Russian army uses inflatable models tanks and other techniques to mislead Ukrainian intelligence. This statement was made by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, posting it on its official page in one of the social networks banned in Russia.

Ukrainian intelligence discovered camouflaged inflatable models of tanks and other armored vehicles in the area of ​​the positions of the Russian army in the Zaporozhye direction. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to present this as a "shortage of armored vehicles" in the Russian Armed Forces against the background of the alleged mass destruction of it by Ukrainian troops. And here also the Western partners promised tanks. In general, someone "too smart" presented all this as a forced replacement of battle tanks with inflatable mock-ups.



At a time when our partners are coordinating the supply of tanks to Ukraine, the occupying army is also increasing the presence of "tank units" in the Zaporozhye direction

- the message of the Ukrainian General Staff says.



However, it is not necessary to talk about the adequacy of the representatives of the Zelensky regime, as Lukashenka said last year: "they are all insane there in Kyiv." The use of mock-ups to mislead the enemy is a worldwide practice, the armies of all countries use dummies to divert attention from the real positions or locations of equipment. The Russian Ministry of Defense pays quite a lot of attention to this issue, as part of the RF Armed Forces there are special engineering camouflage units, which, in addition to inflatable mock-ups, are armed with special equipment. Such subdivisions are able not only to supply inflatable mock-ups, but also to completely "build" an object with everything necessary, for example, a false military airfield.

So while Ukrainian intelligence detects Russian inflatable tanks, and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine scoff at this, real combat vehicles are destroying the Ukrainian army, including in the Zaporozhye direction.

        And sho we have is not inflatable? "Inflatable" prices for food and housing and communal services ... "Balloons" are the promises of the government to the people ... dummies of women for men and dummies for women .... But what about the "inflatable tank dummy"? So this is a necessary condom for a real tank! So sho ... any rubber is in business! (We just have to pray that there will be fewer "dummies" of generals in the General Staff!)

          I’ll tell you one trick, we had three old tents in Chechnya, there were potbelly stoves in them and droppers created the appearance that there were soldiers there, essentially empty in the underground galleries, there was a passage from the dugout where the fighters slept, it seemed like the soldiers lived there, often they were hit there with a mortar by bandits. So you can throw dust in your eyes out of the blue.

        on one of the sectors of the Soviet-German front. mock-ups of anti-tank guns and anti-tank defense were built, moreover, the former owners of the current Natsiks. decided to strike around our troops precisely at this "type of defensive" position ... And, oddly enough, there were real guns and tanks there ... Sometimes the "knowledge" that mock-ups are in front of you can turn into ignorance of where the mock-ups are ...

    It would be surprising if our Armed Forces did not use false targets in the form of tanks, rocket launchers, etc. They are created in order to mislead the enemy. And to pass off their presence as a sign of a lack of tanks, which means another "overpower" to destroy Russian armored vehicles can only be really not quite adequate and, as Lukashenka correctly put it: "They are all insane there in Kyiv."

      That's why I did not understand the surprise of the ukrov and "Alarm everything is gone!" in comments.
      Even 80 years ago, plywood "airplanes" were dragged around the airfield and "guns" were built from drains.


      The famous Soviet pilot Mikhail Gromov told the acting crew that visited the 3rd Air Army in 1943:
      A false airfield is like a trifle, a sham, and how much useful this economy does in a war, distracting the enemy, confusing him and drawing fire on himself. This is truly a restless economy!

      Sun Tzu said 2600 years ago, but it sounds as relevant today!
      War is a way of deception. Therefore, even if you are capable, show the enemy your inability. When you must bring your forces into battle, pretend to be inactive. When the target is close, show that it is far away; when she is really far away, give the impression that she is close.

      The only pity is that now, like 2600 years ago and even 80, it does not work. Starting from satellites in orbit and ending with smartphones from our not-so-smart ones at the forefront.

      Firstly, it won’t work because of the distance, the UAV is either not enough in coverage, or it will be shot down corny, and secondly, the chimars immediately dumps after shooting, and the projectile does not teleport to the point of impact, it flies there for some time. Another thing is if ours attach a bayonet mount to the UAV and attach a telescope from the SLR there and observe typical positions of launching chimeras 30-40 km away and as soon as the chimera approaches the launcher, fire a volley so that by the time it is guaranteed in place, to it a whistling friend flew in.

    The use of inflatable models of military equipment, including tanks, in the conditions of the NMD, when the UAF is supported by US space intelligence, requires a very competent approach.
    Space reconnaissance has an appropriate technique for recognizing false military targets, so at present it is useless to try to set up a group of inflatable tanks imitating a tank unit and assume that the enemy will fall for this trick.
    The presence of a tank unit in the area of ​​concentration should be indicated by indirect signs (traces of caterpillars, the presence of technical and logistic support vehicles, etc.).
    The 45th Camouflage Engineer Regiment, created not so long ago, did not work in real combat conditions, and it is clearly deprived of the attention of our Ministry of Defense on the procurement of relevant equipment and property.
    In recent years, tank biathlon and other ceremonial events have been more important than real combat training.
    May success and good fortune accompany our warriors!
