Abstract
In order to reduce the radar cross section (RCS) of the unmanned aircraft while suppressing its infrared signature, a comprehensive design method (CDM) based on sorting factor Pareto solution is presented. The physical optics and physical diffraction theory are used to evaluate the electromagnetic scattering characteristics of the aircraft, and the Monte Carlo and ray tracing method are used to evaluate the infrared radiation intensity of the exhaust system. CDM is used to evaluate and screen each individual in each offspring, and the design parameters and sub-models of the aircraft exhaust system are continuously improved. The results show that the exhaust port model, lower baffle and nozzle height are the main factors affecting the RCS indicators, nozzle stages, exhaust port model, lower baffle and outer width make the main contribution to infrared radiation suppression. The presented CDM is efficient and effective in enhancing the radar/infrared integrated stealth performance of the aircraft.
