Counter measures dispensing system
Hi,
May I request to be educated on flight testing related to 'Counter Measures Dispensing System'... essentially a flare and chaff dispenser.
Once the requisite integration of this system on an airborne platform is complete---Is there a method, like possible computer based simulation to validate the efficacy of this system against ........ say first generation IR homing based missiles (I intend to discuss about flares only). We must consider associated variables like effect of IR suppressors, IR jammers being used in conjunction with the aircraft manoeuvring evasively while dispensing flares in an actual case?
If these tests are practically possible to be conducted (say)....will they be able to provide quantitative confidence towards the successful integration of the 'Counter Measures Dispensing System' on the airborne platform?
Thanks.
