Abstract:
A structure and a method for modifying an existing design of structure are provided, wherein the structure is provided to at least partially enclose an object that has a large radar cross section. The structure comprises a non-metallic portion having a radar-reflective layer applied to an inclined surface of the structure. The inclined surface is arranged with one or more angles of inclination selected so that the radar cross-section for the structure has a value that is lower than that for the object enclosed in one or more frequency ranges. In a preferred variation, an at least partially detached and appropriately shaped radar-reflective structure may be provided as an alternative to or to supplement the modification of an existing enclosure.
