Submarines are generally hiding from sonar rather than radar and by coating the submarine in rubber or something similar sound doesn’t bounce off it in the same way that metal does. Planes have two options to defeat radar again they can use a coating which doesn’t reflect radar or they can use various angled surfaces that don’t reflect radar back to the source of transmission but scatter it around.
