The Korean military is confirmed to have successfully developed part of the core stealth technology used to avoid the enemy radar detection, after nine years of research. As stealth fighter jets and naval destroyers can evade radar, they can secretly approach and hit the target without being noticed.
According to a military source on Monday, the Agency for Defense Development (ADD), which began research on stealth technology in 1999, has developed a substance that absorbs electric waves, an essential part of the radar-evading technology.
The ADD, which conducted in utmost secrecy a ground test of an F-4 fighter and a miniature fighter equipped with the material late last year, concluded that the result was satisfactory.
Though military authorities are refusing to reveal details of the material, experts believe it is either paint or a special film that can be applied on jets.
