For many years, the worlds militaries have strived to develop a 'stealth' aircraft. Many thought it impossible, and how even if there were such thing it would not fly. Radars became even more seeing, and Surface-to-Air Missiles became more deadly. It became a deathzone in the sky, with the only way to win is to have larger numbers.
Then, the USA developed the F-117. It had been thought of in 1978, when the Air Force decided it needed stealth. It was completed in the late 80s, and used for the first time in 1991, in the Gulf War. By then, the B-2 was being produced. It uses curves as a pose to angles to deflect radar. It proved succesful in Bosnia and in the latest Gulf Conflict.
The F-22 uses stealth in a fighter frame. It has proved maneuverable, but has one fall down. It is very expensive, and isnt as effective as on the F-117 and B-2. It also had frame limitations,a nd the payload isnt as large as most fighters. It has proved to be problematic. Airframes such as the Su-37, F-16 and Su-47 can run rings round the F-22, and are less than half the price.
Countries have strived to come close to having a balance of price, agility, payload and stealth. Raysia came close with his Su-47, and other nations have tried a variety of paintjobs and designs, but none have been what we all need.
Freedom Countries scientists have decided to find a new way to 'stealth' up stuff. Our scientists (greatly inspired Stephen Coonts readers :wink: ) have come up with a way. Here is a brief summary froma secret test lately:
2 Aircraft were up, both F-16's. One had its radar off, the other on. The one with it on had Athena installed. The other had its radar pinging away.
The radar waves were detected by Athena, and its raw data was put through a super conductive, liquid cooled computer. Then, the computer supervised and ordered the release of out of sinc waves from atenaas under the planes surface. This effctively eliminates the radar signal, meaning it is not returned.
What about the scatter effects? Radar A transmits it, radar B receives it?
Well, the computer knows the characteristics of the plane it is 'protecting'. It therefore emits the proper amount of energy in the right directions. That is the heart of it.
We feel this may work. We want to put an end to the problems of stelth, SAM's and radar. We are not sure how this works, but we sure as hell are going to try it.
