👉 Buffer missiles, also known as decoys or electronic warfare weapons, are a type of missile designed to confuse or mislead enemy radar and missile defense systems. They typically mimic the characteristics of real military targets, such as size, shape, and trajectory, to lure enemy missiles into engaging them when they are not actually in the intended target area. This tactic can significantly reduce the effectiveness of enemy missile defenses, buying valuable time for defensive measures or strategic planning. Buffer missiles are often used in conjunction with other electronic warfare tools to create a comprehensive deception strategy, making them a crucial component in modern military operations.
