Camouflage and decoy munitions for protecting objects against guided missiles

Abstract

The invention relates to camouflage and decoy munitions for protecting objects against guided missiles comprising mist and/or target-imitation forming active materials and additional pyrotechnical lighting bodies producing a plurality of hot spots dispersed in the space. The hot-spot producing active material can be embodied in such a way that it is provided with pulsed fire.

1 - 16 . (canceled) 
   
   
       7 . A camouflage and decoy munition for protecting objects against guided missiles, the munition comprising:
 active substances which form smoke and/or spoof targets; and   pyrotechnic flares which produce a plurality of hotspots distributed in three dimensions.   
   
   
       8 . The camouflage and decoy munition according to  claim 7 , wherein an injection charge for the munition includes a hotspot granulate which acts in a desired waveband. 
   
   
       9 . The camouflage and decoy munition according to  claim 7 , including a cartridge fitted with pellets for producing hotspots. 
   
   
       10 . The camouflage and decoy munition according to  claim 7 , including a break-up charge containing granulates or pellets able to produce hotspots in a desired wavelength band. 
   
   
       11 . The camouflage and decoy munition according to  claim 7 , wherein flares or pellets which produce hotspots are incorporated in the active substances which form smoke and/or spoof targets. 
   
   
       12 . The camouflage and decoy munition according to  claim 7 , including an active compound which produces hotspots, which active compound does not burn continuously, but in a pulsating form.
