Tesla can brick your car if they want to; what makes you think Lockheed Martin can't do exactly the same with the F-35 which is required to be just as on-line for basic tasks as a damn consumer vehicle?.
Unarmed Configuration | Armed Configuration (Semi Conformal) |
Remarks : Relatively "clean" looking | Remarks : The interaction between the missiles and the airframe are evident. |
Boramae development news basically makes me have more positive attitude and willingness to continue living.
During course of its history i made myself some modelling effort mainly to predict her Radar Cross Section. I haven't renew my 3D model for it but there are some results. The one depicted here is ANSYS. I have older results calculated using POFACETS and Excel but i guess it is no longer relevant.
The following depicts the RCS at 90 degrees head on aspect (-45 to 45 degrees) between clean vs armed (4 meteor in semi-conformal pylon). The simulation is in X-band (8 GHz) and PEC material. no absorbers assumed.

The armed configuration shows degradation of the RCS due to interaction between missiles and the airframe. But that is to be expected.
As for the numerical value, The Median RCS for the unarmed configuration is 0.06 sqm. While the armed one is 0.15 sqm. caused by the data pool from the above graphics. In order to gauge the effect of external weapons. The "view angle" might need to be limited to the relevant aspect (e.g bottom aspect only etc).

Do you have simulated RCS figures for the J-20 or other stealth fighters/bombers?
I have Su-57, F-35A and J-20. But the J-20 one is very crude as i only model it to show the effect of Canards.
