Nothing's ever "in the clear" in today's contested environment, Shifty.

Then the B2 Spirit with it's bird-sized radar signature is in the clear I'd assume. Otherwise I'd imagine the radar would have to be programmed to sort through the signatures and only display certain types. For example, it wouldn't display a slow-moving bird signature but if the bird-sized object was flying past "X" speed the radar would display that?

bearing in mind a lot of what everyone saying is probably surmising and not actual fact.

People in the know aren't likely to post the classified technical specs of aircraft and radar systems on an open forum.
1. It's just stupid.
2. They would lose their clearance and position immediately (at a minimum)

Doppler radar is a processing function of the raw radar. Frequency and shape issues with regard to stealth still apply. If the radar can't pick up the raw radar return, the doppler processor can't do anything with it.
