We develop low observable ship intake louvers that incorporate radar absorbing technologies to provide excellent signature reduction capabilities. Our dual purpose composite moisture separator, which is also a radar absorbing structure, can function as an intake louver when mounted to weather. Radar absorbing intake structures can be designed to absorb electromagnetic energy over multiple bandwidths.

We design and fabricate low observable air inlet louvers using a variety of processes, such as hand lay-up, resin infusion and pultrusion. This technology can also be utilized in commercial applications for solving electromagnetic interference problems, while providing the economic benefit of very low maintenance requirements.
