Many Anti-Aircraft missiles find their targets based on heat. If an AC130 deploys flares, which are hot, the missiles follow them instead.
so it cant get shot down, ie its more stable than chopper gunner, but harder to get kills tho
You can't choose to deploy flares, it does it on its own. The AC-130 Gunship has two sets of flares to counter missiles.
No. The F-22 stealth raptor has it's ability to move into stealth otherwise it will deploy anti-missile flares.
Before using pyrotechnic distress flares, you should carefully read the manufacturer's instructions and familiarize yourself with how to ignite and deploy the flares safely. It's also important to check the expiration date to ensure they are still effective, and to inform the appropriate authorities, such as the Coast Guard, of your intention to use distress flares in case of emergency.
I do see flares in my eyes. I often will see flares after bending over.
There are several different types of signal flares that can be used at sea.Smoke flares are hand-held flares. Once lighted, they give off white or orange smoke.Aerial flares are small flares that you launch into the sky.A flare gun holds red or white flares that you shoot up into the sky. These flares are quite visible at night.Parachute flares are flares that you fire into the sky, and they slowly descend. These flares have great visibility and a long burn time.very light

The troops will deploy to Afghanistan in three weeks.
Deploy what
The word deploy is a verb. It means to prepare a military unit for usage.
The answer is no because most fighter jets can easily deploy anti-missile flares. Not that much plane was shot down. Just a few of them was shot down but most of them deploy flares. Anti-missile flares came out at the bottom in the back of the plane. Planes has missiles that can travel much more faster. Most fighter jets type get shot down doesn't mean that it is easy to destroy them. It is not easy at all. Jets are not really easy to blow them out of the sky. Check out their afterburners and flares. It depends on the aircraft and situation. Fighters are now more stealthy, manuevrable and speedy than ever. Take the F-15. Though now rather outdated it has the best air to air kill ratio ever: 104:0. so very difficult to shoot down. Once a missile is detected by a pilot he will send out chaff to fool radar and flares to decoy Infra-red missiles. Then he will turn into the missile to make it expend lots of energy to try to follow him. He will then dive before turning into the missile again.
Jets have flares to evade incoming missile attacks. The flares make the missile to bombard a little away from the plane.
