Surface radar can't detect missiles??!

Reading a post by Molon Labe on the Vaults and tricks, it seems that the surface radar can't detect missile? Well hopefully it is not totally true because in real life your Sea Skimmer missile will be detected first by your Air/Surface radar (SPS-55) at around 18 miles (of course depending on a lot of stuff)
Yes I can see the SPS-49 detecting first missiles coming at you if they are High Diver or at their apogee of their boost phase

Has to be verify!

Actually just found out that the SPS-55 is a surface radar only, but still should be able (I think) to detect sea skimmer?
