Imagine an aircraft that can practically disappear from radar detection. That might sound like science fiction, but China says it’s achieved something that could make this a reality. Chinese researchers have developed a new material that they claim could make its aircraft nearly invisible to anti-stealth radar systems. Here’s what we know about this groundbreaking technology and what it could mean for the future of military aviation.
What Is the New Material?
The material, created by the National University of Defense Technology in China, has the power to absorb radar waves and turn them into heat. This process could drastically reduce the radar visibility of aircraft, making them much harder to detect by enemy radar systems. What’s more, the material works across a wide range of electromagnetic waves, including the crucial frequencies used by most anti-stealth radar systems.
How Does It Work?
Anti-stealth radar systems typically use long electromagnetic waves to d...
