Stealth: How to Hide a Plane

What is the main goal of stealth technology in vehicles like planes and ships?

• To make them faster than other vehicles.

• To make them more fuel-efficient for longer missions.

• To make them difficult to detect by radar and infrared systems.

• To make them more comfortable and spacious for the crew.

What does the acronym RADAR stand for?

• Radio And Distance Ranging

• Radio Detecting And Ranging

• Radiation Detection And Reflection

• Remote Aerial Detection And Response

How do stealth vehicles primarily avoid being detected by radar systems?

• By flying at extremely high altitudes where radar cannot reach.

• By using bright, reflective paint that confuses radar signals.

• By deflecting radar signals away from the detector or absorbing them.

• By emitting strong radio waves to jam enemy radar systems.

When a radar signal hits radar-absorbing paint on a stealth vehicle, what happens to the energy from the signal?

• It is reflected back to the radar system with increased strength.

• It is converted into light energy, making the vehicle glow faintly.

• It is converted into heat energy and then dissipates.

• It causes the vehicle to temporarily become invisible to the naked eye.
