Detecting Mast's?

Luftwolf,

Are we saying that the radar systems are detecting everything or almost and at any ranges.
Is that broken that much?

I hope not.
Are you talking in terms of size detectability or in terms of range.

And yes, I am in the Navy and even though it is possible to detect mast and pericope on radar by an MPA/helicopters, it remains a challenge and this inside 20NM.
By ship, you have to know where to look for visually (pretty much) and being focus on the navigational/surface radar with a competent operator.
