Allied deception tactics

Allied deception tactics during wartime involve carefully designed strategies to mislead the enemy about military plans, locations, or strength. This includes creating fake equipment, signals, or units, spreading false information, and using disguise or illusions to suggest larger or different forces than actually exist. The goal is to confuse the enemy, cause misallocation of their resources, and gain a strategic advantage without direct confrontation. These tactics require careful planning, coordination, and intelligence to be effective, often involving complex methods like double agents, spoofing, and controlled leaks to achieve desired uncertainties for the opponent.
