WHAT IS STEALTH TECHNOLOGY

Stealth is a technique in which we can make any object invisible. Stealth is an important technology which used in military operations. Stealth technology also known as LO technology (low observable technology)

HISTORY

The first true "stealth" aircraft may have been developed in Germany during the last years of WWII. This technique has also been used in ships as we can see in the figure.

How to make things invisible

STEALTH-TECHNOLOGY

HOW DOES STEALTH WORK?

Uses the principle of reflection and absorption as well as redirection. Interferes with communication 2 structure surface designs of stealth aircrafts

RAS,

RAM

RAS: RADAR ABSORBENT SURFACES

Deflects

Incoming Radar Reduces detection range Structures include wings, refueling boom Works due to angles of structures and how they are placed. Should have no 90 degree angles

SHAPE OF ANY OBJECT

When we are using normal shape

While we use Stealth Technology

RAM: RADAR ABSORBENT MATERIAL

Absorbs radar signals Depends on material of the surfaces Believed to be silicon based compound Gives the aircraft appearance to be the size of a bird
B-2 Stealth Bomber

MATERIALS
Carbon fiber composites Silicon based inorganic compound

RAM reduces the radar cross section making the object appear smaller.

FACTORS OF STEALTH TECHNOLOGY

The object can be shaped so that any radar signals it reflects are reflected away from the radar equipment.
The object can be covered in materials that absorb radar signals.

AWCT (ADOPTIVE WATER CURTAIN TECHNOLOGY)

This technology is a part of stealth which is used in the ships for making low observable.

ADVANTAGES OF STEALTH TECHNOLOGY

Reduce the causality rate during the war. Saving military budget. Develop the military secretes.

Bluff the anti-detective device.

DISADVANTAGES OF STEALTH TECHNOLOGY

Cannot fly fast
Has to be repainted regularly Cost of maintenance Sensitive skin

APPLICATION OF STEALTH TECHNOLOGY

Military Operation
Civil Aviation ( In Future by Boeing) In Spacecraft In Launch Vehicles

CONCLUSION
This the present worlds one of the best advanced technology to make things invisible as far as possible and it is developing to be applied to the real life appliances as to a common man . Let us hope that it will develop to the more better Way in the future.
