Abstract
A method suitable for protecting targets against attacking projectiles as rockets consist in producing an infrared jamming radiator which radiator jams the infrared target finder of the attacking projectile. The jamming radiator is produced in the vicinity of the target and may be embodied by a jammer cloud consisting of burning particles, preferably foil strips, emitting an infrared radiation more intensive than the infrared radiation of the target and staying sufficiently long in the air as to divert the rocket from the target. The strips are stowed in a container which is emitted from the target and distributes the ignited strips into the airspace near the target.
