2. Stealth technology, also termed low observable technology (LO technology).
Uses in Military Aviation.
Similar to camouflage used by soldier.
Covers a range of methods used to make
personnel, aircraft, ships, submarines, missiles, satellites, and ground vehicles less
visible (ideally invisible) to radar, infrared, sonar and other detection methods.
The concept of stealth is to operate or hide while
giving enemy forces no indication as to the
presence of friendly forces. A
modern stealth vehicle is designed from the outset
to have a chosen spectral signature. The degree of
stealth embodied in a given design is chosen
according to the projected threats of detection.
3. There are two different ways to
create invisibility:
1. The airplane can be shaped
so that any radar signals it
reflects are reflected away
from the radar equipment.
2. The airplane can be covered
in materials that absorb
radar signals.
Most conventional aircraft have
a rounded shape. This shape
makes them aerodynamic, but
it also creates a very efficient
radar reflector.
A stealth aircraft is made up of
completely flat surfaces and
very sharp edges. When a radar
signal hits a stealth plane, the
signal reflects away at an angle.

9. In November 2020, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) awarded Elisra
Group, a subsidiary of Elbit Systems Ltd., a USD 24.9 million contract to
develop the electronic warfare suite for the indigenous Light Combat Aircraft
(LCA) Tejas Mk1A aircraft being built for the Indian Air Force.
The US Navy awarded Northrop Grumman Corporation a USD 100.7 million
production contract for AN/SLQ-32(V)7 SEWIP Block 3 systems in October
2020. The system is used on surface combatants like military surface vessels
to defeat legacy and emerging anti-ship threats with non-kinetic/electronic
attack methodologies.
Lockheed Martin awarded BAE Systems a contract in September 2020 to
produce and deliver additional electronic warfare systems for Lot 15, Lot 16
long lead, sustainment spares, and retrofit kits for the 5th Generation F-35
Lightning II, providing advanced situational awareness and threat response
capabilities that support critical missions in contested airspace.

10. China’s New JH-XX Stealth Bomber Coming Soon? No Way
China’s highly hyped JH-XX supersonic, stealth, tactical bomber/fighter-bomber is
certainly an example of military vaporware. It is reportedly the second stealth
bomber being produced by Beijing, and though its existence has been
confirmed by the United States intelligence community (IC)
“The PLAAF [People’s Liberation Army Air Force] is developing new medium- and
long-range stealth bombers to strike regional and global targets,” an early
2019 report from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) warned. “Stealth
technology continues to play a key role in the development of these new
bombers, which probably will reach initial operational capability no sooner than
2025.” By (19FortyFive News, 31 Aug).
The B-2 Stealth Bomber: Now A Cruise Missile Truck? China Is Sweating
The American aerospace and defense technology company Northrop Grumman
revealed that a B-2 bomber had successfully launched a long-range cruise
missile during a weapons test in 2021. the news of this successful test launch
indicates the power and sophistication of America’s long-range cruise missile
arsenal, it also comes amidst rising tensions with the People’s Republic of
China.
11. The US Just Revealed a Secret Airborne Test of a Long-Range Cruise Missile
The December test was part of the effort to equip B-2 bombers to fire the stealthy
JASSM-ER. (By Defence One on Aug 25)
The cruise missile—Lockheed Martin’s JASSM-ER—has about triple the 370-kilometer
range of the standard JASSM, and is slated to be retargetable in flight, making it easier
to hit mobile targets deep behind enemy lines. The variant has already been fitted to the
B-1 bomber and F-15E strike fighter. “The JASSM-ER further enhances the B-2’s ability
to hit any target, anywhere,” Northrop said in the statement. “The integration of JASSM-
ER enables the delivery of a low observable asset capable of traveling greater distances
than its predecessor.”
