Stealth coatings are specialized materials applied to military platforms to absorb or deflect electromagnetic waves, reducing radar cross-section (RCS). These coatings also minimize heat emissions and visual detectability.

They are extensively used in fighter jets, bombers, naval vessels, drones, and armored vehicles. Advanced research in nanomaterials, composites, and radar-absorbing materials (RAMs) is reshaping the stealth coating industry.
