Russian cruise missile fires decoy flares to fool missile defense

 Warzone:

We finally have our first look at a Russian Kh-101 air-launched cruise missile releasing decoy flares in flight. Russia's forces have been employing Kh-101s with this capability in Ukraine on some level since at least January. This is a feature that first emerged publicly after the recovery of a largely intact example of one of these missiles with what was later confirmed to be a countermeasures dispenser system installed. The War Zone had deduced this was likely the case after seeing the images of the downed Kh-101.

Video showing the Kh-101 deploying countermeasures appeared on social media earlier today, but it is unclear where or when it was taken. Its emergence does follow a massive missile and drone barrage on cities across Ukraine today, which included the launch of at least 90 Kh-101, Kh-55, and Kh-555 air-launched cruise missiles, according to Ukrainian authorities.

The story was from a few days ago, but it does give some detail on the new Russian missile being used against Ukraine.
