• Keeping everything else equal, the statistical outcome of a duel is noticeably affected by a figure-of-merit, M , that describes one's radar performance relative to one's RCS.
• Simplistically: Largest M wins
• Realistically: M-deficiency can be managed by radar discipline, numbers, tactics, co-operation, performance of other sensors, jammers and links, weapons performance, agility and unpredictability
• But that becomes increasingly harder as dM = M - M increases.
• Conclusion:
‒ Keeping fighter RCS in check is and will be important
