The Russian military has come up with an inventive way to deceive the enemy and save money at the same time: inflatable weapons.I think we should to the same with our military capacity. Forget replacing Trident with anything meaningful - instead let's go with a fleet of ersatz nuclear submarines. I mean, what could possibly go wrong with that plan?
They look just like real ones: they are easy to transport and quick to deploy.
You name it, the Russian army is blowing it up: from pretend tanks to entire radar stations.

This stratagem was used by the allies prior to the D-Day landings.
