Stealth Technology: How Jets & Warships Evade Radar | Full Documentary
How do “invisible” jets and warships slip past radar, infrared, and even the human eye?
This documentary breaks down the real science of stealth (low observability)—from shaping that shrinks radar cross-section to RAM coatings, infrared suppression, and noise reduction. See why designs like the B-2, F-22/F-35, and USS Zumwalt look so strange, how they’re operated, and what counters (IRST, low-frequency radar, sensor fusion) are catching up.
