Let’s try an exercise.

Please post a photo of a chaff cloud dispersed from an aircraft (post-WWII), so that we might be able to compare it to this video.

As radar SAMs use wavelengths of 1.5-3cm, also please explain why a tactical aircraft would be dispersing extremely long wavelengths and volumes of chaff that would only work against large search radar systems? The SAM systems already know you are there, and the search radars are going to report activity in the area either way.

Already spent time 2-3 days ago looking for images and/or video of this type of chaff deployment. Could not find it. There were definitely tests done as the US was thinking about at least using the technique in 2005/2006. Bottom line is a company is selling the product today. Order a bundle.

The plane went down. The chaff deployment failed. And now, coincidentally we are sending pentagon advisers. Thing I will drop the discussion at this point since we are getting into gray areas.
