"Definitely we're selling to a lot of governments around the world, not only in Europe," sales and marketing director Poven Kumaresan told reporters.

He added that Inflatech's three dozen employees currently produce 30-40 decoys a month.

These decoys including tanks, armoured vehicles and even jet fighters, weigh between 25 and 90 kilos and take two to four people to handle in the battlefield.

Oh…. Wait a minute. That’s right, Ukraine isn’t paying for these. The American taxpayers are likely paying.

Yup, Ukrainians are only paying for them, with their lives.

Really? How many Ukrainian lives for a Abrams Tank decoy? How many Ukrainian lives for a HIMARS rocket launcher. Are these Ukrainian lives taken by HARAKIRI? How are those to be sacrificed chosen?

In that case I’ll take a blowup school bus. Hopefully that will keep the bombs and artillery shells away from my family. 😊
