Ight I have essentially no knowledge in planes. What makes a big triangle more stealthy than say a Pringles can with wings?
In: Technology
It’s all about radar and other sensors. Odds are you can’t see most planes flying above you because of cloud cover or distance, especially at night. So, people use radar and other sensors. I don’t know the specifics, but suffice it to say that the shape and materials used significantly reduce the plane’s radar profile so enemy sensors either don’t “see” it, or it “looks” different enough to not warrant a response that would normally accompany an enemy bomber/stealth plane.
