mark1= 8000m in GWX and 1.5 The minimum surface of the detected object [m2].
mark2=10000m in GWX and 1.5 The minimum surface of the detected object [m2].

Those figures you quoted are for ship based radar units?,I needed the range for the main radars based at Britain,and Gibraltar.
Thanks anyway.

Ultimately all 3 figures are about the same,give or take a couple hundred kms.
Thats good enough for me.
