Is that like some sick preverted $ex joke Roscoe? That fighter pilots only use numbers in their briefings that are a multiple of 69 ?  |

now, this metal marble and metal golf ball is detectible at what range? How far away is the signal being transmitted?

Adrian,
Detection range is completely dependant on the radar being used. Think of it this way - the better the radar's "eyesight" the longer the detection range. It's like an eye chart for people. Someone with superior eyesight (say 20/10 for example) can read the smaller characters at a greater distance than someone with poor eyesight. The characters on the chart are the same size.
The question here is how close does an enemy aircraft have to be to see something the size of a marble or a golf ball? That will vary depending on the radar in question that's trying to detect the object in question  . |
