"Momentary Distraction" was part of our Team's focus. Dropping unguided munitions from high speed/low level doesn't give too many options for last-moment corrections.
Other airfield Cam ideas being bounced around included:
- Long lines of wheeled frames, fitted with plastic "hedgerows" and radar reflectors. Tow into the midfield to confuse visual cues and try to stop the airfield being a visual and radar hole in the landscape.
- Contrasting grass treatments to either create cam patterns, or attempt to duplicate existing surface areas.
- Multi-spectral decoy aircraft
- Near off-base dispersal of aircraft, away from the obvious targets of HAS sites and dispersals
- ... and even trying to establish dummy airfields nearby using radar reflectors and other techniques.
