Based on this photograph, it looks like the "pontoon bridge" shown on this Sentinel-1 satellite radar picture is in fact a line of radar corner reflectors.

This is a close up photo of a radar corner reflector.

Cold War Soviet doctrine called for such deceptions to be used with multi spectra decoy coverage.

2/ Image
Usually such Soviet radar decoys were covered by smoke screens by special smoke generator companies deployed in a circle around the bridge.

See this US Army WW2 smoke generator video example👇

This is an absolute must read🧵on the evolution of the MLRS/HIMARS launcher technology now being used by Ukraine👇👇

1/
The 'palletizing' of the next generation launchers of the MLRS family of munitions are a big fat hairy deal as far as NATO artillery logistics are concerned.

This is the @MIL_STD tweet you really want to read in that regard:

Putin is going all in at Kherson in the face of Ukrainian GMLRS fire superiority targeted on Russia's logistics.

See this @DefMon3 tweet👇

The Russian 49th Army north of Kherson is well on its way to being its own self-guarding prison camp a 'la the Feb-March 2022 column north of Kyiv.

The parallels with the encircled German 6th Army at Stalingrad and the Russian 49th Army at Kherson, thanks to GMLRS strikes, are...well...striking.

The following is text from the Abstract:

...on what is actually going on inside Russia, including:

- Russia’s strategic positioning as a commodities exporter has irrevocably deteriorated, as it now deals from a position of weakness with the loss of its erstwhile main markets, and faces steep challenges...

This UA M270 MLRS video showed several things.

1. It is operating in a combined arms task force with a UK Starstreak SAM tracked launcher to 'delouse' Russian drones.

2. The GMLRS 'pitch up' maneuver after launch to spoof Russian counter-battery radar backtracking.

1/
3. The use of saturation launches against Russian S-300 & S-400 surface to air missile batteries. A 12 round M31A1 salvo would saturate both as they are built to concurrently engage 6 targets.

2/
12 GMLRS rockets gets S-300 & S-400 SAM systems into trouble timesharing 91N6 or 9S32M PESA** antennas across the targets.

**Passive Electronically Scanned Array (PESA) radar consist of a single Transmitter (& multiple Receivers) while an Active Electronically Scanned Array.
