Airport radars add sensor capability the military base. The coverage area of the radar establishes the military base's air traffic control area.
The airport radars does not stack with the military radar, the stronger of the two is used.
Sensors
The radar contains a sensor station which can be used just like the ones used aboard a spacecraft.
The strength of the sensors is equal to ? per m³ of sensor volume.
If a radar detects an enemy spacecraft on its sensors, it will cause the city to send out a distress city report.
System Emission
A radar will start receiving emissions from nearby solar systems. The higher the QL of the radar, the farther away emissions can be detected.
For more information on emissions, see the System Emission page.
System Survey
Once a city has both an airport radar and an observatory, an automatic system survey is completed of the city's solar system.
See the System Survey page for more information.
