He drops a decoy missile that should give out a strong radar image.

In 1955 the USAF started a major effort to construct decoy missiles.

Starting in December 1952 Fairchild began concept studies for a ground-launched long range decoy missile that could simulate strategic bombers on radar.

The shortcomings include such basics as the need for better radar to deal with decoy missiles and stronger rocketry to achieve the bullet-hitting-bullet precision of planners.

The system successfully detected and tracked a medium-range decoy missile that was not carrying a warhead, the ministry said, but did not intercept it.

The J85 was originally designed to power a large decoy missile, the McDonnell ADM-20 Quail.

The bomber shoots up two decoy missiles, which successfully leads the Soviet missiles high in the air and Colonel Grady's plane survives.

"It's the decoy missile problem," Kevin M. Doyle, the beleaguered acting chief of the Capital Defender Office, said.

Beyond that, he said that $50 million had been cut from the multiple-kill vehicle program that is supposed to counter decoy missiles as well as actual warheads.

During April 1955, the USAF began a program to develop a short range air-launched decoy missile to simulate the radar cross section of a bomber.

Countermeasures include four launchers for Nulka decoy missiles, plus four six-tube launchers for radio frequency, infrared, and underwater acoustic decoys.

The only hardware actually in the production pipeline are the new decoy missiles and the stealthed missile pods, and it'll be some time before any of the other goodies reach deployment status.

In 1962, SAC activated missile maintenance squadrons to provide maintenance for both the Hound Dog and the ADM-20 Quail decoy missile.

The Union of Concerned Scientists said in a written statement that the proposed defense hardware was largely unproven technology that might not work at all or could be easily thwarted by decoy missiles.

The ADM-160 MALD (Miniature Air-Launched Decoy) is a decoy missile developed by the United States of America.

As the indicators max out, Cowboy looses a radar decoy missile and kicks the panzer into a shuddering left turn, its starboard side scraping soil as the panzer mashes its cushion down.

The ADM-141A/B TALD was an American decoy missile originally built by Brunswick Corporation for the USAF and the Israeli Air Force.

The MALD-J technology is part of an effort to prevent Air Force units from being sent into dangerous locations by adding a radar-jamming capability to the MALD platform, a decoy missile used to suppress enemy defenses.

The Americans are conducting illegal, warlike reconnaissance flights over our country with stealth bombers, launching sophisticated decoy missiles over our forces that fool our air defenses into thinking we are under massive attack so we quickly expend all our weapons.

The Miniature Air-Launched Decoy (MALD) program was begun in 1995 by DARPA as an effort to develop a small, low cost decoy missile for use in the Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses.

In March 1953, the United States Air Force released General Operational Requirement (GOR) 16 which called for a long range decoy missile to increase the effectiveness of Strategic Air Command bombers by confusing and saturating an air defense system.

It's too easily overcome by an enemy,' Coyle said, noting that even U.S. defense officials acknowledged that the system would be able to defend against one or two missiles launched from Iran, not dozens, and that current technologies would not be effective if they faced a swarm of decoy missiles. '
