Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0512202A2] A method for protecting an object emitting IR radiation, particularly ships, against missiles equipped with intelligent IR homing heads is created. After the missile has been located, a large-area pyrotechnic cloud of interfering radiation is first generated adjacently to the object between the object and missile, which initially briefly emits a strong infrared radiation which interferes with the locking-on and tracking electronic of the homing head, and then emits a weak infrared radiation for a comparatively long period. Immediately after the strong radiation phase of the cloud of interfering radiation has ended, several decoy clouds are generated which then lead the missile away from the object to be protected step by step. The clouds of interfering radiation are generated by projectiles, the active mass of which consists of phosphorus flares and phosphorus granulate. <IMAGE>
