Hostile radar range cut on Su-35s

Article Abstract:

Materials and techniques that have the capacity to reduce the head-on radar cross-section (RCS) of a Sukhoi Su-35 fighter by an order of magnitude, having the range at which hostile radars can detect it, were developed by the Russian stealth researchers. They also developed mathematical tools to calculate scattering from complex configurations.

Excalibur firings test base-bleed capability

Article Abstract:

Two inert XM982 Excalibur Block Ia-2 GPS-guided projectiles with tactical base and fitted with live base-bleed units were fired for the first time in October 2006. The primary objectives of the test were to present the Excalibur's navigational functionality throughout its flight with live base bleed and to verify base-bleed performance.
