What military uses might this blacker-than-black material have?

Fascinating.

“A British company has produced a material so black it absorbs all but 0.035 percent of visual light, which is the new world record apparently.”

They also say ” Then there are the military uses that the material’s maker, Surrey NanoSystems, is not allowed to discuss.”

So let’s guess. Coating for the Stealth Bomber comes to mind. I wonder if it has any radar absorbing capabilities?
