The Flanker airframe is not particularly stealthy. However, adjustments to the engine inlets and canopy, and the use of radar-absorbent material, supposedly halve the Su-35’s radar cross-section; one article claims it may be down to between one and three meters. This could reduce the range it can be detected and targeted, but the Su-35 is still not a “stealth fighter.”

Though not a stealth fighter, its fuselage has been shaped and coated with radar-absorbing material which would be supplemented by the plane's electronic warfare radar jammers.

Anyway, the first application of radiation absorbing material was USSR's Soyuz manned spacecraft which applies RAM in solar panels to absorb radiation from Sun to make electricity.



how can you see a jet flying at 30,000 feet with your naked eyes
