Low Observable
"Low Observable" refers to technologies and design features that make military aircraft, ships, or vehicles less detectable by radar, infrared, or other detection methods. This concept is crucial for enhancing the survivability of these assets in combat situations, allowing them to operate more effectively without being easily targeted.
The term is often associated with stealth technology, which includes specific shapes, materials, and coatings that minimize the reflection of radar waves. Examples of low observable platforms include the F-22 Raptor and B-2 Spirit, both designed to evade enemy detection and improve mission success rates.
