Dummy Tanks For The Russian Army Fool Enemies

FRIDAY HUMOR

Look-alike inflatable tanks are meant to act as decoy targets for enemy weapon systems, helping to protect real military hardware from destruction. The Rusbal tanks contain simulators that produce radar and thermal radiation, which closely mimic the signature of actual Russian tanks. 

Airtight material covers the simulators, power units and fans over a thin frame, all of which is inflated in under 10 minutes. Rusbal has been making inflatable products since 1993 with their most sophisticated products going to their Russian military clients.
