Miniature Ground Launch Decoy

Miniature Ground Launched Decoy (MGLD) is a low cost, expendable, autonomous, high performance aerial vehicle for operational utilisation as a decoy. The MGLD is powered by a turbojet engine apart from booster rocket for ground launch. It is capable of executing flight profile that mimic fighter aircraft transit speeds and radar network, freeing up fighter aircraft used as decoys, effectively misleading enemy air defence to reduce risk to the strike package. It is equipped with both active and passive RCS augmentation systems to attract and deceive enemy radars and firing units.
