Research abstract
THIS PROGRAM WILL CENTER ON DEVELOPING A FABRIC ARRAY SYSTEM WHICH WILL HAVE THE DUAL CAPABILITIES OF SUPPRESSING THERMAL (IR) AND RADAR SIGNATURES FOR COMBAT TROOPS, EQUIPMENT, AND SHELTERS. RESEARCH WILL CENTER ON IDENTIFYING AND QUANTIFYING DUAL THERMAL COATINGS (A HIGHLY REFLECTIVE COATING AND A LOW EMISSIVITY COATING). SANDWICHED BETWEEN TWO COATED FABRICS WOULD BE A DIPOLE FILLER WHICH WOULD EXHIBIT A LOW RADAR CROSS SECTION.
