When people hear the word stealth airplane they always think invisible or cloaking or something, but in reality what stealth planes are don’t come close to that. A real stealth plane (B -2) is just a combination of real high tech technology. The B - 2 is a US war plane.
It is around 175 feet long, has a really slick and thin frame, and the best radar deflectors there is. In reality, it doesn’t block the radars but it actually deflects them do that the waves never reach were there coming from thus there is no information going to the enemy. The B – 2 can deflect infrared, acoustic, electromagnetic radar waves.
This plane is so advanced in technology since 1988, on 1 has been brought down out of the 20 there are and it was a technical error, not because of combat. The reason there are only 20 is because this plane literally cost hundreds of billions of dollar to make.
In my perspective I think that having this kind of technology is really cool. The thought of having something that huge in size go undetected is amazing. This type of airplane is going to create a brake through for other things that are yet to come in the future. Maybe one day we will have invisible planes.
It is pretty incredible to see how the technology has evolved over time. What mad you interested in this??
ReplyDeleteNice Blog Leo the stealth plane is really cool besides its appearance.
ReplyDeletePretty impressive i would never pay that much money for a airplane no matter what kind but if that's what the government wants.
