Russian military personnel, by placing tires on Tu-95 and Tu-160 missile-carrying bombers and other strategic aircraft, are disrupting the operation of target identification systems with which the means of destruction are equipped.
Chief Technology Officer of the US Central Command, Schuyler Moore, noted that this measure confuses the guidance systems of drones and missiles, which compare the received images with the onboard database.
Therefore, if you place tires on top of the wings, it becomes difficult for many computer vision models to understand exactly which aircraft is in the lens of the camera.
For the first time, the use of tires on strategic aviation aircraft was recorded back in the fall of 2023, when images of Tu-95 and Tu-160 bombers surrounded by them at an airbase appeared.
Such tricks concern not only tires, but also many other measures, for example, when the military resorts to non-standard coloring of the sides. In the American press, the list of tricks designed to deceive computer vision includes drawing silhouettes of airplanes at airbases or submarines in docks.
Earlier www1.ru reported that BRK "Bal" with subsonic missiles received the latest navigation system.
