Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider an aircraft with a large fuselage and straight wings. Analyze how you would expect its RCS to change if the wings were modified to be tapered and curvilinear.

💡 Hint: Think about how changing angles and surfaces changes reflections.

Challenge 2 Hard

Compare how an object of a specific size behaves in radar detection when using low frequency versus high frequency. Include the implications on RCS.

💡 Hint: Address how wavelength plays a role in the radar's perception of the object.
