Stealth experts wins defence science prize

AN expert in stealth technology has won the 2013 Minister's Award for Achievement in Defence Science.

Assistant Defence Minister Stuart Robert said the work of Andrew Amiet from the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) had made military vehicles and vessels harder for an enemy to detect.

Dr Amiet is a fine example of the brilliant scientific minds that make a significant contribution to Defence capability, he said.

"Dr Amiet is responsible for developing and evaluating materials with stealth capabilities for use on submarines, ANZAC ships and Army vehicles to minimise their detection by radar, sonar, infrared and other electronic systems, thus significantly improving their operational capability," he said in a statement.

Chief Defence Scientist Alex Zelinsky said Dr Amiet's outstanding research had delivered a range of stealth products, from very light radar absorbing materials to high-density structural systems.

Dr Amiet said he wanted to reduce the probability of Australian Defence Force vehicles and vessels being detected, increasing the effectiveness of countermeasures.

The Minister's Award for Achievement in Defence Science has been presented annually since 1988, recognising outstanding and original contributions capable of enhancing Australia's defence effectiveness and efficiency.
