Stealth paint/copper decals

No.63879833 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Can someone explain to me (retard) how covering an aircraft in these split semicircle circuits painted on honeycomb lattices makes stealth bombers invisible?

Also if you could explain how iron ball paint (archaic f-117 version of this) hides shit from radar, I would appreciate that.

Nothing above high school level physics plz.

How the hell is it possible for commanders in modern war to keep track of all their units? When you have hundreds of divisions even just keeping track of which unit is part of which corps, who is in command, and where the unit is and its status seems like an insurmountable challenge.
And then you have a small number of commanders at the top having to absorb this absolutely massive amount of information and try to make a plan out of it that takes into account the actions of the enemy and THEIR dispositions

Could Iran btfo the MOP with this arrangement?

No.63877212 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
What if the MOP got through the bunker walls and bypassed the actual target?
It would then explode inside a water tank.

How can a MOP defeat this arrangement?
