Towed Target Flare

Towed Target Flares are a type of pyrotechnic device that falls under the supply class Pyrotechnics in the supply group Ammunition and Explosives. These flares are specifically designed to be towed behind an aircraft or other vehicle to create a visible target for training or testing purposes.

Towed Target Flares are typically used in military exercises, where they are deployed to simulate aerial targets for training purposes. They are often used by fighter pilots and air defense units to practice target acquisition, tracking, and engagement.

These flares are designed to produce a bright and visible light, making them easily detectable from a distance. They are usually equipped with a parachute or other means of slowing their descent, allowing them to remain in the air for an extended period of time.

Towed Target Flares are an important tool for military training, as they provide a realistic and cost-effective way to simulate aerial targets. They help improve the skills and proficiency of military personnel in target acquisition and engagement, ultimately enhancing their combat readiness.
