Realistic Radar Detection
Currently makes all smaller objects and missiles such as the AGM Harpoon have a slightly larger Radar Cross Section so that they can be detected beyond point blank range (if they were detected at all), the standard value of 0.1 causes unrealistic detection distances. Many radar systems failed to detect even medium sized missiles before impact (HY-2 / Silkworm Coastal Battery). Mine Clearance should also be more realistic. Please provide any honest feedback regarding your experience with detection ranges! The Radar Cross Section Values for Objects of the smaller classes have been adjusted:
– VeryTiny = 0.001 -> 0.01
– Tiny = 0.01 -> 0.1
– VerySmall = 0.1 -> 0.7
– Small = 1.0 -> 1.6
Currently, All Dual-Purpose Air-Surface Search Radars are only able to scan for Air targets. This means that many Surface vessels rely on their smaller, shorter range Surface Search radars. (Around 50km) As such, it is difficult to accurately adjust the larger values beyond Small. When this issue is fixed, larger values will be tuned as well.
