Considering this was published in 1977, way before Have Blue became common knowledge & the 'F-19' models circulated before the F-117A was unveiled, Thomas was unerringly correct with his concept of a plane undetectable to radar. Certainly five years before the movie adaptation of the same by Clint Eastwood.
'Pulp Scifi'? That MiG-31 Firefox: Mach 6+. The F-37 Talons & UCAV 'EDI' in the movie Stealth. China's developing a hypersonic plane.
I recommend another novel, The Capricorn Quadrant. Features a Russian stealth plane that kills it's pilots & goes rogue as it has an AI, way before that concept was a thing
