Really stealth?
According to Clark, one of the most critical capabilities DD(X)
will have is a 50-fold radar cross section reduction
compared to the current class of destroyer. Clark clearly
spelled out what advantage this will bring to the battlespace.

WASHINGTON (NNS) -- Testifying before the House Armed Services
Committee's Projection Forces Subcommittee July 19 2005, Chief of

2.Does it mean RCS of DD(X)reduced by 98% compared with current
class of US destroyer?Ok.Sg aim at to deduce 50% is good
enough.
What are RCS of US and other naval ship built in different
periods.

Figure 1 illustrates and relates acoustic, radar, IR, and
electro-optical signatures of submarines and surface ships to
regions and design aspects of the ship that are most prominent in
controlling those signatures
Figure 2 illustrates the relative radiated-noise reduction achieved
in submarines and surface ships since 1960
Figure 3 illustrates the relative nominal reduction in surface ship
RCS and IR signatures for most classes of surface ships since
1960

Pl post if u can find this paper . thanks so much.
Formidable class
La Fayette class
Our fren is right.The bow is different.More streamline.etc
Pl post a same size photo side by side to compare the
outline--front,side,rear.top.
