Scientific paper

`Stealth' is an area of approximately 2000 x 500 km (E-W by N-S), straddling Mars' equator west of Tharsis and originally mapped at λ=3.5 cm by Muhleman et al. (Science, 253, 1508-1513, 1991). The name 'Stealth' was given because of its low radar backscatter cross section in the 1991 observations. Using transmissions from Mars Express and reception at 70-m antennas of the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN), we have obtained five 'spot' measurements of oblique-incidence forward scattering from Stealth at fixed incidence angles 32°
