The 11 pages that link to Radar cross-section, each with the reason it gives.

• RadarRelated: It explains why objects of similar size can produce very different echoes.

• Weather radarRelated: Hydrometeor shape, size, and composition determine the strength of their echoes.

• Airborne early warning and controlRelated: It influences whether an airborne radar can detect and maintain a track on a target.

• Radar astronomyRelated: Echo strength depends on the target’s effective radar reflectivity.

• Stealth technologyRelated: Shaping and materials aim to reduce the radar energy returned to a sensor.

• Angle of incidenceRelated: A surface’s orientation to incoming radar changes how much energy returns to the receiver.

• Anti-aircraft warfareRelated: Aircraft design and aspect affect how readily defensive radars can detect them.

• Stealth aircraftRelated: Shaping and surface treatments aim to reduce the radar echo used to detect aircraft.

• Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning IIRelated: The F-35's design seeks to reduce radar returns, especially from selected viewing angles.

• Northrop B-2 SpiritRelated: The B-2’s shaping and materials are intended to reduce the radar return measured by this quantity.

• Electromagnetic field calculationsRelated: Scattering calculations estimate target detectability from its geometry and materials.
