Stealthy Radio Antennas

Yesterday, I found the interesting article on Military & Aerospace Electronics’ website. The title is “"Army asks industry for ideas on developing stealthy radio antennas for military SUVs" on November 20, 2012 posted by John Keller. It said U.S. Army communications researchers are approaching industry for ideas on developing a stealthy ultra-wideband antenna system for sport utility vehicles (SUVs). The researchers at U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC) at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, issued a sources-sought notice (BAA-08-R-P415_) for the Antenna Research, Reduction, and Compatibility (ARRC) program, which seeks ideas on stealthy radio antennas for SUVs. In addition, MIL-STD-810G conditions will be considered.

I think this is a very interesting idea to protect military combat communication networking identifiable by stealthy radio antennas. Even through, it is currently still an idea. Because this idea can help the military forces for maintenance their operation without radio communication identifiable. And I think stealthy radio antennas will be a new advanced step of military combat communication in the future.
