They’re just copying the IDF recruitment Ad model, who hired Eastern European models to dress as IDF soldiers and perform “cute poses” in clips & pics for social media.
In Britain during WWI and WWII, there was a campaign where women would commonly shame men who weren't in uniform by putting white feathers on them [0]. Although arguably different, some of the same mechanisms, e.g. using sex to encourage enlistment, are at play.
Simp isn't an acronym (I don't think, or at least not generally used as one), it's just slang. It's not derived from simpering though, it doesn't mean anything like that. It refers to sad men who are led around by their nose by women who have no interest in them. Those men are simps (also known as white knights, suckers, marks etc).
Did you read the article? you think it’s a good thing that psy-ops soldiers are using sex as a selling point for national service?
Kids shouldn’t be lured into the forces because they think they’ll find a trad-wife or some waifu fantasy. They should know what they’re signing up for, and this ain’t it.
The Simpsons already did it.[1]

> Cosplay commandos are posting nationalist thirst traps to mobilise the SIMPs – but why?
Love this tagline. But it looks like the answer is marketing?
I don't think "simp" is an acronym or anything like that, it's just short for simpering, right? "Simp" = "One who simpers"

They market everything else. So, why not?
Because war is unambiguously suffering, only serial killers can enjoy it!
Good. 4 years in the service was the best decision of my life.

Crikey imagine having to rely on simps to man your army.
It's an equilibrium. You also need your army to give your simps something to do. Prevents them from starting to question authority and priorities.

Guess the DoD couldn't find enough Emmas with two moms to fill their ranks.
