Radio-absorbing materials
Abstract
Recently abroad in connection with rapid development of radar technology methods and means of antiradar protection of flight vehicles, which facilitate breach/inrush of aircraft and rockets through lines of air defense intensively are developed/processed. On the intensification of works in this direction it is possible to judge a sharp increase in the expenditures of USAF (United States Air Force) for the development of the combat means with radar - with 35.5 million dollars in 1962 to 119 million dollars in 1963 and 155 million dollars each in 1964. Utilization of radio-absorbing materials, which ensure decrease of effective surface of scattering of aircraft and rockets, is one of effective combat means with radar.
