Have you ever wondered how anti-missile flares protect aircraft from heat-seeking missiles? In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of anti-missile flares, also known as infrared countermeasures (IRCM). Learn about the basic principle behind these devices and how they decoy missiles away from aircraft. Discover how the emission of infrared radiation confuses heat-seeking missiles, causing them to target the flare instead of the aircraft. However, we'll also explore the limitations of anti-missile flares and how advanced sensors and algorithms in some missiles can overcome their decoy tactics. Don't miss this captivating explanation of anti-missile flare technology!
