We have had this tech for over 40 years! Track Break Notch will do similar things by either walking a radar off you, or move your position according to what the radar can see.
The bigger problem is millimeter band radar, you need really funky waveguides to broadcast these as a normal antenna can't cope the small wave frequency.
The A6 from the Navy and the EF-111A from the USAF both could manage similar things to this, I can only hope they have managed to it smaller as the units for each section of bandwidth were the size of a small coffin, and you needed LOTS to cover the threat assessment for a given area.
Smells more like grant sniffing to me..

The ones in the Northeast must have a bitch of a time, when I was growing up in southern Maine, there were 4 within 10 miles distance of our house, now the closest one is Saco, glad to see it's still running . In addition to the short season, you had to contend with either small black Midges that really leave a welt, or the garden variety industrial size mozzies that take turns trying to bust in the window if they catch a wiff of your C02. Ahhh the good ol days....
