Yes I know the physics behind it, how sharp angles reflect radar waves off of the aircraft, away from the radar, but if that's the case, why not make a plane that looks like it's from minecraft?
So here is my question to you, if you were to build a stealth plane, anyplace, how would you make it?
A dark color, some sharp edges and a sleek design. For references Use the SR-71, F-22 and F-35.@Supercraft888

I know how they work, thank you, but what design would make a plane look stealthy?
I'll explain this.
Basically radar (that thing that allows anything to be seen) just emits a bunch of radio waves which hits the plane and some will be reflected back at the receiver.
To make a plane stealthy you can either:
1.) reflect as little as possible radio waves
2.) absorb it
3. Combine the previous
To make things simpler. Think of the plane as a wall and the radio waves as a ball being thrown an you are about to catch it. If you can't catch it because it's out of your reach, you cannot find the plane using radar. (Longest comment I've ever done btw)
@LiamW oh yeah, that works too
Paint john cena's face all over it
Don't forget the special low-signature paint which is used for 'stealth' aircraft. Reducing radar footprint it is not bog-standard aircraft paint or acrylic removable temporary finish.

I know it's not supposed to be 90° it was a joke, but what do the angles look like?
Me and firenut build this plane its from minecraft
it wouldn't look like MC, MC doesn't have slopes ;)
