Someone tell me how this fricken boat is stealth? I can see it from 20 miles away. Only a fricken idiot could have made this boat and thought it was stealth. Great immigrant labor force we have in charge of the navy.

Cannot be detected on radar at the same time as it can detect other shipts, it'll blow you up before you're in line of sight.

Still, too expensive to be efficient cost wise.

Because it looks like a dinghy on radar

An enemy ship wouldn't get within visual range

>>79300545
US Navy Surface Warfare Officer here, no you cannot see it from 20 miles away. Even at the top of a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, the visible horizon is about 14 nautical miles. You can't see even the mast past 18 miles. Read your fucking Bowditch.

While I'm not a stealth hater, building the whole military around unproven concepts seems somewhat unwise.

It isn't. The new generation destroyers are replacing cruisers.

No, it's actually flat or concave surfaces. It's because of how radar reflection works. Rounded edges reflect a lot more radar energy than flat or concave surfaces.
>>
>>79303993
can they not cover the surface in dimples to reduce the footprint? if what you say is true then surely a flat surface that was pitted with evenly spaced dimples would absorb the energy without bouncing it back, like those echo cancelling foam sheets they use in recording boothes
>>
>>79303343
I'm sure none would question what a dinghy is doing on the open ocean.

Stealth is just a meme.
>>
>>79304160
Some materials absorb more radar energy than others (for example, iron reflects WAY more energy than wood). That's all I'm going to say on the topic because shit gets classified real fast.

"Stealth" doesn't mean becoming invisible. It means lowering the range at which your enemy can detect you so that you can launch your missiles or fire your railgun before they can identify you.

I bet you think the f-35 is a meme too

Tumblehome has a reputation for that, and once it starts going it has less force acting against it, but supposedly Zumwalt is okay.

It's not designed for blue-water operations primarily, anyway.

visible to the naked eye at 20 miles maybe, visible to radar systems at 50 miles out where it will probably be 99% of the time? nope
