Have Glass is the code name for a series of RCS reduction measures for the F-16 fighter. Its primary aspect is the addition of an indium-tin-oxide layer to the gold tinted cockpit canopy. This is reflective to radar frequencies, while it may seem odd, adding a radar reflective coating actually reduces the plane's visibility to radar. An ordinary canopy would let radar signals straight through where they would strike the many edges and corners inside and bounce back strongly to the source, the reflective layer dissipates these signals instead. Overall, Have Glass reduces an F-16's RCS (radar-cross section) by some 15 percent. The gold tint also reduces glare from the sun to provide better visibility.

Why do PGA tourneyments golf carts have no top?
Carts are only allowed on the cart path. If you have several lined up in a row parked to watch a player, their canopys would be a visual barrier to a lot of the foot traffic. So, for the same reason you don't want that guy in front of you in the movie theater wearing a 10 gallon cowboy hat, the carts have no canopys.
