由于光波技术在成本和性能方面均有优点,预计光子元件和光缆在军事应用中将逐渐代替电子设备。在今后10年内,很大程度上以光子为基础的系统将开始出现在作战飞机上,例如,保密飞机上将广泛使用光子系统。电子系统要求飞机上像在地平面上敷设金属管道一样基本上用复合材料制作。而光缆却不用金属包复,故不产生电子发射,从而有助于飞机本身隐蔽。目前发展的先进飞机,其设计都强调尽可 As lightwave technologies have advantages in cost and performance, it is expected that photonic components and optical cables will gradually replace electronic devices in military applications. In the next 10 years, largely photon-based systems will begin to appear on combat aircraft, such as the widespread use of photonic systems on confidential aircraft. The electronic system requires that the airplane be made of a composite material essentially like a metal pipe laid on the ground plane. The optical cable is not metal cladding, it does not produce electronic emission, which helps hide the aircraft itself. The current development of advanced aircraft, its design are emphasized as much as possible
