Vojtech Fresser, Managing Director of Inflatech, boasts a true-to-the-original look of its products.
“If I don’t have binoculars, and I’m at a distance of 150-200 meters, I can’t tell if it’s a real weapon or a decoy“
The motor used to inflate the weapons also gives off heat that tricks enemy infrared sensors.
According to him, the inflatable decoys cost between 10,000 and 100,000 dollars, much less than the rockets used to destroy them.
“If I force the enemy to destroy my product with something that is at least four times more expensive — but in practice it is even 20 times more — I gain economically“, emphasizes Mr. Fresser.
Mr. Kumaresan says his company continues to develop its products and plans mobile inflatable lures in the future.
Inflatech, who originally made the lures for training purposes, also formerly made toys or custom models according to customers’ wishes.
“We produce according to specific customer requirements. We are not an e-shop where you could choose“, explains M. Fresser.
There is “no limitto production or product line, and the company expects rapid growth over the next three years, he adds.
“Of course, I would prefer to produce children’s toys. But above all, we must assure them of a safe world“, he insists.
