While stealth jets have various tricks to evade traditional radars, the quantum radars might prove to be a game-changer in a war between the US and China.

for people like me wondering, what’s a quantum radar:

They send out photons whose quantum properties changes once they hit the stealth aircraft.

Once the single unit photons reach the radar after hitting the stealth aircraft, they are studied, thereby revealing the position of the stealth jets.

so far all the information we have (from the article) beings with “China claims”

I call bs and propaganda campaign but will see.

The article literally only says they’ve developed a new photon detecting device, not a quantum radar system. This isn’t news.

That description is vague enough to include normal radar.
