Stealth Aircraft is the first book to describe a secret revolution in military aviation. In windowless offices, closely guarded factories and secret Us Air Force bases that appear on no maps, enqineers and pilots have built and tested extraordinary fighters, bombers and spyplanes which can take on the world 's toughest air defenses and survive - because the defenders cannot detect them. Aerospace writer Bill Sweetman tells the secret story of Stealth in unprecedented detail and investigates the sophisticated blend of high technologies which make the new Stealth aircraft practically invisible to the most powerful and sensitive radar systems. He looks at how Stealth aircraft can change the balance of airpower, and at the way in which Stealth technology will be applied to a rapidly growing number of aircraft and missiles , in six chapters.
