D4n Posted April 8, 2018 Posted April 8, 2018 Why is it not detecting? Is it realistic, does 1L13 EWR have so bad elevation?

Frederf Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 I check a B-52 at 25,000' was declared clean (GCI response) at 12-13nm. This is about a 17.6° angle. I tried again at 40,000' and got ~24nm for a similar angle. It's hard to measure precisely. Maybe tangential passes will have range change not so quickly. I don't think fog-of-war icon appearing and disappearing is a good measurement method. http://www.ausairpower.net/APA-Rus-Low-Band-Radars.html claims maximum detection elevation 30 degrees.
D4n Posted April 9, 2018 Author Posted April 9, 2018 Yep ok I just used an online calculator, according to it all these 3 examples are just out of the 30° angle...

Frederf Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 Yeah I can't get 1L13 radar to detect that close for targets that high. Can you get a response from GCI "picture" request that reports a contact with that position? I cannot.
D4n Posted April 9, 2018 Author Posted April 9, 2018 No I could not.
