The test flight of the J-20 stealth fighter on January 11, was “a
symbolic leap in China’s military modernization drive”, according to
China Daily.
The news has also excited many young Chinese, as it is China’s first stealth fighter.
How exactly does stealth technology work?
Simply speaking, stealth technology allows an
ffxiv gil aircraft to be partially invisible on radar or any other detection methods.
It’s the principle of reflection and
FF14 Power leveling absorption that makes aircraft “stealthy”.
Most
conventional aircraft have a rounded shape, which creates a very
efficient radar reflector. No matter where the radar signal hits the
plane, some of the signal gets reflected back.
A stealth
aircraft, on the other hand, is made up of completely flat surfaces and
very sharp edges. When a radar signal hits a stealth plane, the signal
FFXIV Power leveling reflects away at an angle.
Also,
the surfaces on a stealth aircraft can be treated so they absorb radar
signals. The overall result is that a stealth aircraft like an American
F-117A reflects the radar signature of a small bird rather than an
airplane.
But stealth technology can’t make an aircraft fully
invisible. It’s similar to the *camouflage *tactics used by soldiers in
jungle *warfare. Unless the soldier comes near you, you can’t see him.
The motive behind stealth technology is not just to allow planes to
buy runescape gold
avoid missiles but also to give deniability to covert operations. In
other words, we can say that the job of a stealth aircraft pilot is to
not let others know that he was ever there.The test flight of the J-20 stealth fighter on January 11, was “a
