1)Longer range radars on some of the land targets. A little unrealistic maybe, but opens the door for some long range online TLAM strikes. Right now at about 18 miles, thats too small. A coupla sonobuoys would cover that space with 6 mile active range. I figured out recently that if you put the airport on a mountain, you can pick up its radar up to 82 miles away (a little excessive, looking for about maybe 25-50 miles). Make the p3 have to hunt a little harder for that sub about to launch soon. Using teamwork to locate the land targets spread out over a large map would be cool, something different.

you forgot the earth curve, Hydroshok !
All ranges you mentionned are conditionned by the elevation of the source.
There is nothing to touch at all in this matter
Things are perfectly realistic actually => this is not the range of radars but curve of the planet that limit the detection range on surface platforms.
Near all naval radars today are able to emit at more range than they could actually receive a contact, because the curve avoid them to see the contact.
