ENGINEERING COMPOSITE MATERIALS AS RADAR WAVE ABSORBERS - The latest technological developments make a fighter aircraft capable of entering enemy territory without being detected thanks to material engineering carried out with a combination of two or more materials with different characters in each constituent component to obtain a new element with characteristics as desired. This research was conducted using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method that compares the character of materials to be used on stealth aircraft. Data is obtained through literature studies, and secondary data use. The composite material was chosen as the material used in stealth fighter aircraft, as the anti-radar fighter aircraft, considering the nature of its properties which makes the aircraft structure stronger and lighter and meets the STWR standard (strength to weight ratio) as a comparison between strength and mass the material itself.
