Question:
Why would many nations spend billions of dollars, over 4 decades and more, developing stealth technology, for the F-117, B-2 and other things, so as to get their RCS's down to that of a small bird, (F-117) or even lower, an insect, (B-2), so as to avoid detection, when, (we are told), a totally stock standard, straight off the showroom floor, Kingswood model, B-777-200, is apparently, virtually invisible anyway, as she comes, with an apparent RCS already not only less than that of a small bird, but down at the level of an insect, you don't even have to upgrade to a Premier, let alone a Statesman ?
OK, sarcastic, I know.
A dose of reality.
Take a course on Radar from Lincoln Laboratory at MIT.

Quite a lot there.
Allocate a few days - that's rite - days - to study it.
Now, returning to the subject at hand.
That B-777 did cross over Malaysia M'lud, honest it did, and up the Malacca Strait too M'lud, and silently slipped past both all them Indonesian and Thailand radars too M'lud, and magically, none of those radars saw it M'lud.
(M'lud makes an entry in his case notes - ".... classified ?......")

The 1 Ghz plots are the most interesting, since most Air Search Radars (PSR's or Primary Search Radars) operate in the "L Band", basically in the 1.2 Ghz to 1.6 Ghz range.
