The reflector against HIMARS missiles was shown by Defense Minister Alexei Reznikov.
He said that with such a device, the Russians defended themselves from HIMARS in the area of the Kherson bridge.
This is a military square reflector. The entire territory near the Kherson bridge was covered with dozens of such Russian reflectors. The enemy tried to use this anachronism to defend against… HIMARS. Indeed, this is a war of a free future against a totalitarian past,” the minister wrote on Twitter.
This is a military corner reflector. The center of the district near the Kerson Bridge was connected to the daughters of such Russian reflectors. An imposing class for using this anachronism to protect people from… HIMARS
To be sure, this is a struggle for a free perspective against the totalitarian past. pic.twitter.com/ZpgapiASRH— Oleksii Reznikov (@oleksiireznikov) February 4, 2023
A square reflector is a device in the form of a rectangular tetrahedron with mutually perpendicular reflecting planes. A beam incident on a square reflector is reflected strictly in the opposite direction.
Square reflectors are commonly used for accurate measurement of distances and return of radiation exactly back (decoys and electronic warfare traps).
