done anything had it been on? As I recall, it's an IR
"dazzler" designed to screw with incoming IR guided missiles,
right? But the TOW is wire guided.The_Chieftain: As I understand it, Shtora doesn't do anything to the
guidance, it does something to the tracker. There is a flare in the
back of most wire-guided missiles that the system uses to figure
out where the missile is in relation to the sight picture, and it
then sends a signal down the wire to correct it. Shtora overwhelms
the 'seeker' in the guidance system that is looking for the flare
by sending all sorts of flare signals back at it, making it
impossible to distinguish the flare from the background noise. Thus
the missile may wild.
