Thanks, Chazly - Yes, EMCON was no active sonar/radar transmission, No Emcon was transmitting - It was just through the mission editor, so I think it's 'all or nothing', with regards to Active Sonar and Surface Search Radar...

I tried the same test with some aircraft, I don't think the Surface Search Radar works at picking up snorkels in RA; I believe it can in real life.

Counter-detected by Seahawk - 1.2 NM (flying directly over me; this must have been either visual or MAD detection)

Counter-detected by Orion - 2.1 NM (this must have been either visual or MAD too)

Thanks ET2SN - very interesting! I had to look up Prairie/Masker, interesting stuff!

Cheers guys,
Stew
