Aerodynamic and Stealth Analysis of a Conceptual Aircraft Based on Recent Advances of Stealth Technology

Arishmita Mukherjee

Abstract: The recent advances of stealth technology in aerodynamics requires ever progressing engineering to come up with aircraft designs that can provide optimum benefits. Every country and aviation giant focuses on inventing new designs to defeat ever evolving radars and climatic conditions at the same time. Generally, one comes at the price of the other, and trying to optimize both often results in harmful life cycle costs (LCC), that makes the product an engineering marvel, but not a viable option to fly on regular missions. Thus, a conceptual aircraft was developed with the help of Computer - Aided - Design (CAD) and a likewise model was deployed into other simulation software?s to compute aerodynamic performance (CFD Analysis) and Radar Cross Section (RCS analysis) to judge all - round feasibility of the preliminary design.
