How well do modern decoys hold up against satellite radar that can see through cloud, darkness, and camouflage? The Forsvaret (The Royal Danish Armed Forces) spent a day in June 2026 finding out. A decoy that fools the eye does not fool SAR. Radar beams reveal a target's material, geometry and internal structure, so a metal shape built to look like a tank can register as something else entirely from space. ICEYE worked with The Royal Danish Armed Forces to test exactly that, with more than one hundred representatives from the Danish Ministry of Defence, the Royal Danish Armed Forces, Forsvarsministeriets Materiel- og Indkøbsstyrelse (DALO) and the intelligence community in attendance. "Reconnaissance capability in the new satellite era sets higher requirements for the protection of military targets. ICEYE showed that with SAR, targets can be distinguished day and night, and this places greater demands on armed forces." Major General Jan Dam Commander of the Royal Danish Air Force and Space Force. Denmark gained data to strengthen its protective methods. ICEYE gained data that sharpens ICEYE ATR, trained on the world's largest SAR dataset.  Read the full story: https://hubs.li/Q04m76rJ0 SAR image: Previously published ICEYE Dwell Fine image, the probable Rostov-on-Don submarine is visible under a tarp in Sevastopol, occupied Crimea.
