Chaff and flare are two critical countermeasures every fighter jet carries—but they serve very different purposes. Flares decoy heat-seeking missiles, while chaff confuses radar-guided threats by scattering metallic particles. In an F-16, we train to deploy them based on the type of missile—and sometimes both, depending on the threat. #Military | Shawn Walsh
