Going a bit MAD

About how close does say, a P-3 have to be to see clearly from the SAM launcher station? I believe when you are aiming and firing the SAM, you are looking with no magnification. As I mentioned earlier, I have a bit of a visual impairment so I have a real hard time using all the visually based sensors like periscope, the HF sonar, and especially just standing on the sail where I have no bearing info or magnification. Despite this, I can usually use peri effectively against regular sized merchants and warships at attack ranges, but I haven't ever really tried using it to look for aircraft. What's a reasonable visual range for a P-3 with 8x zoom?
