Which outcome results when a radar absorbent material (RAM) experiences surface contamination?

💡 Explanation

Surface contamination alters the material's dielectric properties, disrupting **wave propagation** due to increased impedance mismatch; therefore specular reflection increases because the EM wave is reflected rather than internally absorbed, rather than matched internally.
