IIT Kanpur has introduced a groundbreaking innovation in stealth technology with its AnÄlaká¹£hya Metamaterial Surface Cloaking System (MSCS). This cutting-edge system is designed to make objects almost invisible to radar, offering significant advancements in defence and national security.


Developed by a team of researchers and students from IIT Kanpur, the AnÄlaká¹£hya MSCS is a textile-based broadband metamaterial microwave absorber.

Its unique capability lies in its ability to absorb radar waves across a wide spectrum, rendering Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging ineffective.

This means better protection against radar-guided missiles and enhanced stealth capabilities for modern warfare.

The innovation reflects India's growing self-reliance in defence technology, with over 90% of its materials sourced domestically. After extensive testing from 2019 to 2024, the technology proved effective in various operational conditions.

It has been licensed to Meta Tattva Systems Pvt. Ltd. for manufacturing, marking a critical step towards its deployment by the Indian Armed Forces.

Stealth technology is a critical asset in today's technologically advanced battlefields, where radar surveillance systems dominate. By absorbing radar waves, AnÄlaká¹£hya MSCS reduces detectability and increases the survivability of equipment and personnel.

It strengthens India's operational capabilities and offers a significant strategic edge in maintaining national security.


The launch event was attended by prominent defense officials, including Air Marshal Ashutosh Dixit, Air Marshal Rajesh Kumar, and Lt. Gen. Cherish Mathson, who commended the IIT Kanpur team for their innovative efforts.

The system not only represents a leap in stealth technology but also highlights the collaboration between academia, industry, and the armed forces.
