PN ... agreed on UK tone-down, although RAFG would have a different argument as the threat from tactical aircraft was more significant.

Your point on PRSL [new term to me, but I know what you mean] is well taken. That's where I would envisage, for example, deploying radar reflectors and other signal generators in an attempt to create false offsets/IPs. It won't fool everyone, but anything that diminishes the weight of an attack is of value: high-speed approaches to targets in a hostile environment leave little room for error, and if those can be created there are tangible benefits.

MPN, PRSL were anotated on the US 1:200,000 charts we used. A good example of radar camouflage was during WW 2 when the Germans covered a significant water area in Hamburg to shift the town centre.

And do we do anything to repeat the good lessons of history? Nope!

In my office we had a WW2 camouflage manual - a very informative read. I wonder where that went?

Blimey, I didn't think it would have been that effective.

Thanks, missed that.
