Iran Sets Up Ghost Army to Fool US-Israel | ISH News

On 4 March 2026, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) shared a grainy infrared video on its official account on X. The footage appeared to show an airstrike on what the IDF described as an Iranian helicopter. According to the military, the strike targeted two locations in Iran and destroyed military equipment and buildings. But the video quickly sparked debate online. Many social media users questioned whether the object in the footage was actually a helicopter. Some suggested it looked more like a painted image on the ground rather than a real aircraft. Others argued that if a helicopter had truly been hit by such a blast, its parts would likely have scattered from the explosion. Adding to the speculation, a media post claimed that Iran had imported more than 900,000 inflatable military decoys from China. These reportedly include fake tanks, missile launchers, and even ballistic missiles designed to look convincing from the air. According to the claim, Iran has also used simple materials like wood, rubber, and paint for this kind of “dummy warfare.” However, none of these claims have been officially confirmed. In reality, the use of decoys in warfare is far from new. Militaries around the world have long relied on inflatable replicas of tanks, aircraft, and missile systems that can easily fool drones or satellites. Another tactic involves painting large aircraft shapes or shadows on runways and open fields. Some decoys even use small heaters to produce heat signatures, confusing thermal imaging systems. The logic is simple: place fake equipment in visible areas so the enemy wastes expensive weapons on them, while the real assets remain hidden in shelters or underground bases. With a single Israeli missile estimated to cost around $3 million (about ₹25 crore), striking a decoy could mean millions spent on destroying something that costs only a few hundred dollars. The idea isn’t new. During World War II, the United States Army formed a special deception unit known as the Ghost Army. It used inflatable tanks, fake radio traffic, and sound effects to create the illusion of large troop movements where none actually existed. Online, some users even joked that if the target in the video was fake, an expensive missile might have been used just to wipe out a painted picture on the ground. One person quipped that they even checked online—and discovered that inflatable military decoys are actually available for sale in many different models. #USIranWar #IranWar #USIsraelIran #IndiaSigningHands #ISH #ISHNews #ISL #IndianSignLanguage #SignLanguage ISH News broadcasts the Daily News and Entertainment online in Deaf-friendly accessible formats which are in Indian Sign Language (ISL), visual images with titles, voice-over and closed-captions.
