Abstract Infrared and radar detectors posed substantial challenges to weapon equipment and personnel due to their continuous surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities. Traditional single‐band stealth devices are insufficient for dual‐band detection in both infrared and microwave bands. To overcome this limitation, a gradient‐structured MXene/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite aerogel (GMXrGA) is fabricated through a two‐step bidirectional freeze casting process, followed by freeze‐drying and thermal annealing. GMXrGA exhibits a distinct three‐layered structure, with each layer playing a crucial role in microwave absorption. This deliberate design amplifies both the efficiency of microwave absorption and the material's effectiveness in dynamic infrared camouflage. GMXrGA displays an ultralow density of 5.2 mg∙cm −3 and demonstrates exceptional resistance to compression, enduring 200 cycles at a maximum strain of 80%. Moreover, it shows superior microwave absorption performance, with a minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) of –60.1 dB at a broad effective absorption bandwidth ( EAB ) of 14.1 GHz (3.9–18.0 GHz). Additionally, the aerogel exhibits low thermal conductivity (≈26 mW∙m −1 ∙K −1 ) and displays dynamic infrared camouflage capabilities within the temperature range of 50–120 °C, achieving rapid concealment within 30 s. Consequently, they hold great potential for diverse applications, including intelligent buildings, wearable electronics, and weapon equipment.
