The S1850M Long Range Volume Search Radar is able to detect them as well, since 2009..

They are build to be installed on the new R.N carriers.

It can detect a metal ball the size of a tennis ball 100 miles away..the saying is a F-35 looks like a metal golf-ball.

The S1850M is an improved version of the Dutch build Smart-L by Thales..

The Smart-L was also capable of detecting stealth technology but Thales was ordered to filter this out, at least that's the rumour, and it was 10 years ago.

More important the Smart-L can detect a missile at 2000 miles(!) making it the best Radar in the world to this day.

During trails it picked up a U.S balistic missile (launched for the test) at 400 miles away and tracked it outside the atmosphere it also calculated its complete trajectory, this is the only way to be able to do anything against such a missile.

And if you really believe that all this has not been taken into account years ago?

Your only kidding yourselves.

The Stealth stuff you see today is only what you are allowed to see or know about.

What you know about today is already decades old.


You think they just stopped working the tech back then?

A friend of mines father used to work for Bell Labs and always told us that the stuff they tell you about now, is already outmoded, otherwise they wouldn't tell you.

I still have friends in some places.

I ain't worried about this new stuff radar crap.
That's so behind the NOW level that it's laughable!

Yep that would be nice to see, fabric is usually treated and painted and the cables would make for one big emission..

LOL, so the Americans went to all the trouble of copying Nazi designs, passing them off as alien spaceships, for nothing!
