stealth ship

Invisible naval vessel

A stealth ship is a naval vessel designed to minimize detection by radar, sonar, infrared sensors, or other surveillance technologies.

The hull shape deflects radar signals, while specialized coatings and reduced heat signatures help evade enemy tracking: The stealth ship slipped past coastal defenses undetected.

The concept extends to science fiction, where stealth ships may employ cloaking devices for invisibility.
