Across visible light, infrared and radar domains, our decoys pursue measurement equivalence rather than simple realism:
Visible light: 1:1 scale, silhouette, shadow, paint reflectance curve match ≥95%
Infrared: Distributed graphene heaters create surface temperature profile identical to engine/exhaust, emissivity ≥0.9, temperature difference ≤±2.5°C
Radar: Metal-fiber blended fabric provides radar cross-section (RCS) within real equipment statistics, reflectivity >95%
Result: Reconnaissance systems output not “suspected target” but “high-confidence real target”.

From battlefield economics to deployment details – straight answers to your questions
It is a tactical deception terminal. The only thing it shares with a toy is the need for air. The difference: a toy makes children laugh; this makes an enemy reconnaissance officer frown and waste a missile.
AI recognizes feature vectors. Our design is generative adversarial: we first collect real equipment signatures (visible/IR/radar), then inversely optimize the decoy’s surface, heat distribution and edges. In open dataset tests, mainstream object detectors misclassify our decoys as real with 68–81% probability. The AI finds them “convincingly suspicious.”
On the contrary – being identified as “fake” is itself a deception. The enemy must spend more intelligence resources to verify (intel cost explosion), and may still strike “just in case it’s real” (decision paralysis). Our product is a cognitive burden generator, not a one-time illusion.
No. Three anchoring methods: ground stakes, sandbag sleeves, tactical loops. Test results: unfixed decoys shift in sustained Beaufort 6; anchored decoys remain stable in Beaufort 8 gusts. Aerodynamic shape optimized, drag coefficient much lower than common inflatables.
Zero. But its purpose is to absorb that shell instead of real equipment. Battlefield math: one 152mm shell hits a decoy (cost ≤$7k). That same shell hitting a real tank (cost ≥$700k + lives). That’s the cost exchange ratio – spend thousands to save millions.
Yes. In a brigade-level force-on-force exercise, Red Force mixed 12 tank decoys with 4 real tanks. Blue Force UAV reconnaissance reported “armored company, high confidence” and called in precision artillery. 83% of the targets hit were decoys. Blue Force spent ~$340k in guided munitions; Red Force’s decoy total cost was under $42k. Detailed report available under NDA.
With 1:200 scale three-view drawings or 3D scan: simple models 15 days, complex 28 days, non-standard (e.g., large radar dome) 45 days.
Yes. Public Display Version: no active heat source or radar layer, retains flame-retardant and UV-resistant materials, price reduced ~60%, includes 3-year anti-aging warranty, allows close touching (with guardian supervision).
One sentence – they make “nice-looking decoys”; we build systems that participate in tactical decisions. Key differences: distributed heat array vs. single-point heater; metal fabric integrated vs. bolt-on corner reflectors; we provide deception solutions (placement strategy, inflation/deflation rhythm, real/fake mixing ratio), not just products.
