📡 When Fiber Orientation Becomes a Weapon

The B‑2 Spirit doesn’t achieve radar evasion by chance.
It’s the result of engineers turning composite materials into sophisticated electromagnetic defenses.

📡 Radar systems emit waves. Metals reflect them back.
But with carefully aligned fibers, specialized resins, and precise layering…
Composites can absorb, scatter, and effectively cancel radar signals.

This is stealth designed into every layer.

🔹 CFRP outer skins → Carbon fibers convert radar energy into heat, dissipating it.
🔹 Honeycomb cores → Encapsulate and trap radar waves within the structure.
🔹 Glass & aramid layers → Adjust electrical conductivity and enhance lightning resistance.
🔹 Embedded RAM (Radar-Absorbing Material) → Not just painted on, but integrated directly into the laminate.

And the key innovation:
🧠 Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) — precisely orienting each fiber ply to control how radar waves are reflected or absorbed, like conducting an electromagnetic symphony.

No fasteners, no seams—just a continuous, radar-absorbing shell.

Stealth isn’t merely applied; it’s engineered fiber by fiber, ply by ply.
