There are many ways to perceive an object. Take a ball, for example.I have a question?
Where is the STEALTH of this Aircraft, when one can even saw them with a naked eyes?
Waiting for a decent answer.
Thanks in advance
If you hold the ball, then you are perceiving it thru direct 'skin to skin' contact.
If the ball is on the table and you are looking at it, then you are perceiving it thru a specific range of the electromagnetic spectrum.
The keyword here is 'perception'.
What everybody casually calls 'stealth' is technically correct as 'low radar observability' or 'low radar perceivable'.
With radar, you are perceiving the ball or the aircraft thru a specific but different range of the electromagnetic spectrum.
So an aircraft designed to be 'stealth' would be shaped to make perception difficult in the microwave range of the EM spectrum.
Hope that helped.
