Instructions

1. The Inflatable Target/Decoy may weigh over more than 200-600lbs. (depending on the model), so caution should be exercised when moving/inflating/loading/unloading and handling the equipment. Always use heavy-duty dolly with steel fenders such as Monster Mover to move your Target/Decoy and staff should always wear back support belt.
2. Be sure the area that you will be setting up your Target/Decoy is free of all debris including any rocks or sharp objects. Grass or hard ground is fine for set up if there are no rocks, debris, or sharp objects.
3. You may opt to lay out a ground tarp to protect the Target/Decoy, but not necessary.
4. The inflated Target/Decoy requires clearance from adjacent obstacles is a minimum 5’ (1.5m) around and above the perimeter of the Target/Decoy with an additional 15’ (4.5m) clearance from utility lines.
5. Unroll the Target/Decoy and lay flat in the desired direction/orientation.
6. Tie off any unused blower tubes and be sure that all zippers/flaps are closed.
7. The Target/Decoy is to be anchored by a minimum (6)18" x 12” ground stakes at 85% depth. Anchoring should be applied at a 90 degrees angle (i.e., perpendicular)
8. If anchoring on a hard surface such as asphalt or cement, a minimum of 80lb sand or water bags should be required per anchor location. Aircrafts can be anchored to tie-down rings.
9. Connect inflation blower to the air tube using strap attached and close off the additional air tubes by twisting the tube several times and fold it over and secure snugly with attached strap.
10. Now you can install your heat signature radiant blankets (if it wasn’t installed from the factory). Locate the velcro flaps to attach the thermal blanket(s). (Note: tanks will have thermal blankets in the engine compartment and both tracks. Other vehicles will have thermal blankets in the engine compartment and generators.
11. Plug your inflation blower(s) into the closest properly grounded (GFCI) 110v or 220v (depending on your power source/Country) outlet or gasoline/diesel generator.

History and Evolution of a Revolutionary Radar Defense System

The Scud Missile Launcher holds significant importance in modern warfare due to its strategic reach, mobility, and potential to carry diverse payloads. As a mobile ballistic missile system, it can quickly be deployed to different locations, making it difficult for adversaries to pre-emptively neutralize. With a relatively long-range, it can target distant enemy assets, including major cities or military installations, posing a credible threat and potentially influencing enemy decision-making. Moreover, its payload flexibility allows for the delivery of conventional or even non-conventional warheads, heightening its offensive capabilities. However, it is essential to acknowledge that the use of Scud Missile Launchers raises serious ethical and humanitarian concerns, including the risk of indiscriminate targeting and collateral damage, which emphasizes the need for responsible and cautious deployment in accordance with international norms and agreements.

Advantages of the Scud Missile Launcher 

1. Strategic Reach: The Scud missile family has a relatively long-range, allowing for attacks on distant enemy targets, including major cities or military installations.
2. Psychological Impact: The threat of Scud missile strikes can create fear and uncertainty among enemy populations and decision-makers.
3. Payload Flexibility: Scud missiles can carry different types of payloads, including conventional explosives or even chemical or biological warheads, giving them the potential for diverse offensive capabilities.
4. Fire-and-Forget Capability: Some Scud missiles are designed for fire-and-forget operations, enabling them to autonomously track and engage their targets.
