A task force, that's the target that you see, and can never hope to catch up to, or even close on much less end around. Those are the contacts that you'd report in RL.
Good point. So in theory, assuming this works, then we'd need 4 visual nodes.

Capital warships (blind to direct rear, but large max visual distance)
Merchants (blind to direct rear, less max visual distance then escort)
Escort ( 360 degree, less max visual distance then capital ship)
Aircraft ( 360 degree, Larger max visual distance then capital ship)
