Adammo 0 Posted October 8, 2003 It would be nice to have the ability to have active vs passive radar: active: sends out a ping and looks for enemy..the bad side is passive radar can pick this up and lock onto it and locate you.. passive: doesn't send a ping out but instead waits for active radar to be used. This lets them locate enemy or friend. With passive radar you can't locate enemy unless: 1. the enemy switches to active radar 2. you visually spot them with active radar you can locate an enemy by switching to it but any vehicle with passive will also locate you and can lock on you. you won't see them until you active it.. This is a cat and mouse game used in war and would be very welcome in OFP. Capt Moore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PainDealer 0 Posted October 8, 2003 I've never thought of this and I'm a big fan of radars BIS should work on better radars at least in general. the target locking isn't too good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
