ABSTRACT:
Radar echo reduction in an aircraft and the like provides a radar reflective rear edge that is independent of the configuration of a main wing or the like. In a particular object required to suppress radar echoes such as, for example, an aircraft, a ship such as a warship, a special vehicle, a bridge or the like, the radar echo reduction constituent is a conductive thin layer equipped on an outer surface of the object and having its terminal rear edge oriented obliquely to the expected direction of an incoming radar wave.
