Stealth technology also known as low observable technology. It provides the range of technique used in aircrafts , missiles , ships and submarines in order to make them less visible [ideally invisible] to radar, infrared, sonar and other detection methods. Stealth technology greatly reduces the distance at which a vehicle can be detected.

With the advent of radar technology in second world war, efforts were made to make radar detection in-effective.

The first "stealth" aircraft have been developed in Germany during the last years of WWII. Later americans worked on stealth technology and suceeded.
Experimental bomber yb- 49 flying wing paved the way for united states when it was not detected by radar for a period of time First ever working Stealth Aircraft was developed by Lockheed Martin in 1983 called the F-117A nicknamed as the Nighthawk.

STEP1. Radar tracks the location, speed, and direction of a vehicle by sending out (transmitting) short bursts of radio waves. STEP2. It listening for an "echo" as the waves bounce off the vehicle. STEP3. By measuring how long it takes for an echo to arrive back, and how much of a frequency shift has occurred in the echo (as compared to the transmitted signal). STEP4. Finally the distance to the vehicle, and its velocity, can be tracked.

RADAR CROSS-SECTION REDUCTIONS


Almost since the invention of radar, various techniques have been tried to minimize detection. Some of the techniques used for this purpose are:

STEALTH VECHICLE SHAPES & DESIGN


It should be coated with the Radar Absorbing Materials. Its tail should kept an ACUTE angle. Planes wings has to kept at Angle. Design of Nose. Stealth aircraft must bury the Engines within the wing or fuselage.

The right-angled surfaces at the wing and tail roots also reflect radar signals straight back to their source. Panels on planes are angled so that radar is scattered and no signal goes back to base.

A second way of stopping radar reflections is by coating the plane with material that soaks up radar energy. These typically consist of carbon, carbon fibre componsites, or magnetic ferrite-based substance. Nanostructural composite materials absorbing radar waves without reflecting. Flight-control surface can be made from honeycombed materials which reflect incoming radar waves.

What Radar Absorbing Materials Did?


Nano structural composite material, absorbing without reflection radar wave.

TYPES OF STEALTH

INFRARED
PLASMA

AWCT

Infra-red radiation are emitted by all matter above absolute temperature zero. Hot zones such as engine exhaust , wing surface [ friction due to air ] get heated which rather increases the visibility. These part should be kept cool as possible it can be. Option would be mixing of cool air with the hot engine exhaust.

In This Technology, Jet Injects A Stream Of Ionized Gas Which Covers The Jet And Absorbs Radiations Coming From Radar Making The Plane Almost Invisible.

AWCT [ adoptive water curtain technology ]


This technology is to reduce surface ships vulner ability to rcs , infrared signature and visual signature reduction

Rcs reduction elements are generally implemented in ships to further reduce the remaining rcs AWCT is used

In which a water curtain is developed around the ships called as Clutter

ADVANTAGES
Reduces the causality rates during war Saving military budget Develop the military secretes Bluff the anti-detective device USED AS AIRCRAFTS, SHIPS, TANKS ETC

ISSUES WITH STEALTH TECHNOLOGY


Stealth aircraft cannot fly as fast or is not maneuverable like conventional aircraft.

Another serious disadvantage with the stealth


aircraft is the reduced amount of payload it can carry.

Cost of maintenance

India is building SUKHOI 5th generation fighter with the Russia which will be introduce to the Indian air force in 2015-2016. India is also building a light combat aircraft for the Indian air force to replace Jaguar and MIG27

CONCLUSION
>Stealth technology is a techniques used with Aircrafts, ships order to make them less visible to radar. >Need of Stealth Technology very importance in military field. >Its an arm race except it isn't between specific countries. Its a fight between Technologies.
