Stealth technology (or LO for low observability) is not one technology. It is a set of technologies, used in combinations, that can greatly reduce the distances at which a person or vehicle can be detected; more so radar cross-section reductions, but also acoustic, thermal, and other aspects.
Passive (multistatic) radar, bistatic radar [25] and especially multistatic radar systems detect some stealth aircraft better than conventional monostatic radars, since first-generation stealth technology (such as the F-117) reflects energy away from the transmitter's line of sight, effectively increasing the radar cross section (RCS) in other ...
Plasma stealth is a proposed process to use ionized gas to reduce the radar cross-section (RCS) of an aircraft. Interactions between electromagnetic radiation and ionized gas have been extensively studied for many purposes, including concealing aircraft from radar as stealth technology .
Stealth drone ship ‘Orca’ Known as the “Orca” the JARI-USV-A is a high-speed stealth unmanned surface combat vessel. The 500-ton vessel is designed to be highly radar resistant and ...
F-117 Nighthawk F-117 flying over mountains in Nevada in 2002 General information Type Stealth attack aircraft National origin United States Manufacturer Lockheed Corporation Status Used as training aircraft as of 2024 Primary user United States Air Force Number built 64 (5 YF-117As, 59 F-117As) History Introduction date October 1983 ; 41 years ago (1983-10) First flight June 18, 1981 ; 43 ...
The Pave Mover radar demonstrators provided the non-stealth portion of the program's targeting system, whereas Tacit Blue was intended to demonstrate a similar but stealth capability, while validating a number of innovative stealth technology advances. [1] The radar sensor technology developed for Tacit Blue evolved into the radar now being ...
China looks to be building a new radar system purported to have counter-stealth capabilities, analysts found. Satellite images appear to show a SIAR system on Triton Island in the South China Sea.
Lockheed Have Blue was the code name for Lockheed's proof of concept demonstrator for a stealth fighter. Have Blue was designed by Lockheed's Skunk Works division, and tested at Groom Lake, Nevada. The Have Blue was the first fixed-wing aircraft whose external shape was defined by radar engineering rather than by aerospace engineering.
