A device for reducing the effective radar cross section (RCS) of a naval vessel, the device comprising:
- a cladding panel configured to be mounted on one of vessel superstructures and cargo of the naval vessel, the cladding panel being permeable to radar beams;
- a reflection means, which reflects radar beams wherein the reflection means is embedded in the cladding panel and is aligned at least partially inclined with respect to a main plane of an extent of the cladding panel.
A naval vessel comprising a vessel superstructure or cargo, the naval vessel having mounted thereto:
- a cladding panel being permeable to radar beams;
- and
- a reflection means, which reflects radar beams wherein the reflection means is embedded in the cladding panel and is aligned at least partially inclined with respect to a main plane of extent of the cladding panel.
