Blinking jamming is an active self-screening technique performed by at least two aircraft to tackle monopulse radars and all complexity related thereto. Nowadays, the technique can be performed with digital radiofrequency memories (DRFMs), which are cumbersome, complex, expensive, need a dedicated compartment and antenna, and introduce spurs in the signals. In this paper, we propose an alternative to the implementation of blinking jamming with DRFMs, namely with reconfigurable metasurfaces. By covering the aircraft parts that most contribute to the radar cross-section (RCS), reconfigurable metasurfaces can interchangeably absorb or amplify impinging waves, making the aircraft 'blink' from the radar perspective. To validate the feasibility, simulations accounting for realistic phenomena are conducted. It is seen that, if the aircraft RCS can be varied in a ratio of 10:1, either with absorptive or power-amplifying metasurfaces, a performance similar to that of the DRFM is achieved. Furthermore, a ratio of 2:1 is sufficient to make the radar antenna system movements exceed the angular range of the formation. We also anticipate our work to be a starting point for completely new ways of countering radars, e.g., with countless small drones performing passive or active stand-off blinking jamming.
