Large Radar System

General Information

Each Long Radar adds one unit to your bases's "Long Range Detection" meter, and helps with UFO Detection.

Every ten minutes game time, each Large Radar has a 5% chance of detecting a UFO within a 450 nautical mile radius of your base.

Whether these chances are effected by the size of the UFO is unknown. Popular opinion is that multiple radar systems do not add to these odds. (?)

[ NKF: Actually, they don't. Only one small radar and one large radar will be able to stack. Multiple radars of the same type do not - and only cost more money. The large radar awards 20 short and 20 long range scanning for the base, the small radar gives it 10 short range scanning. When building multiple large radars, your base's scanning ability is only improved by 20 short and 20 long. Adding a small radar boosts short range detection to 30. ] {ok, never could actually get definitive proof, maybe the aliens were just increasing their UFO numbers, so it looked like better detection.}
