The following investigation evaluated the effectiveness of
expendable infrared countermeasures (flares) in the protection of a
fast jet against imaging infrared seekers. The report presents an
effectiveness evaluation process and analyzes the results of Monte
Carlo simulation runs. The goal of the investigation was to
determine if expendable countermeasures (specifically spatially
distributed flares) could be effective against imaging IR-guided
threats.
