    EGM is the radar image after signal post-processing, RBM is basically the raw picture, and thus may be of even higher interest to the trained eye.
    Water is definitely very much radar reflective (despite what Matt was saying in his video), but it's SMOOTH. Remember how geometrical "stealth" works? It *reflects* the incoming EM waves in a DIFFERENT direction from the transmitter, and so does SMOOTH water. But when there is swell, a wake trailing a peri or a boat - you can see that stuff on the radar screen (and if it was such a perfect absorbent as some tend to think - that wouldn't matter). That's not to mention radar altimeter or weather radars...

      ​@@grimreapers My good old 486 feels offended, or rather would feel that way :)
      I'm not sure about the actual computing units used in that particular case, but they are most likely some special purpose DSPs (apparently, not based on the thinnest available lithography process).
      Processing power is one thing, but non-NN based upscaling/enhancement most likely needs more than one radar sweep worth of input to generate enhanced output. Same thing, for example, is true for SAR: by sampling a certain area from different (but known) positions with certain lateral offset you can emulate a radar of much wider physical aperture, but it takes a while for the platform to move through all these positions and take a sweep at each. Radar aperture - just like in case of optics - is responsible for radar image resolution, but since the wavelengths used are much longer than those of visible light, you need a proportionally larger aperture than that of the eye. That is also the reason why only larger geometrical details start making difference at those wavelengths / apertures, but if you up the frequency or use a larger aperture radar (or use aperture synthesis, as mentioned above) - you start making out finer details. Also why geometrical "stealth" isn't working well against older radars: they are simply "blind" to the intricacies of the surface and perceive the whole thing as some uncertain "blob" of roughly that size. You could also say that ELF transmitters "can't see" all the water above a submarine, making radio frequency communications possible, while the high intensity X-rays from a nuclear explosion have a hard time penetrating the surrounding air farther than a few meters around, heating up the said bubble of air, resulting in the fireball. Although yes, X-rays also do penetrate materials and air rather easily on the other hand... Then again, the distances of irradiation are much shorter in that case.

      Yeah, radars are cool, because of the ripple that most water have you can actually see oil spills in water from satellite radars, because the oil removes the ripple.

    @andreartymiuk 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The radar image becomes clearer as you get closer to the target. So using GM mode is a compromise between precision of the targeting vs exposure to air defences. Can also use the radar to set a spi from long distance which the tpod will then default took at for fine tuning of the target position assuming no clouds blocking it.

      Shouldn't that be "slave sensors to SPI" or something like that instead? STP stands for "steerpoint" I think.

      Originally coming from DI Tornado. While DCS is amazing it is also amazing what DI (and other programmers) managed to do with a 66 MHz, 640 KB memory.
      DI's Tornado had AA radar and a pretty good AG radar. You could set target points on the moving map or AG radar, set autopilot to steer towards it. Front and WSO cockpit. Autopilot which could be commanded to terrain following at different altitudes or barometric altitude. Flying fast with heavy weapon load required a higher terrain following altitude.
      I recommend to try it (DOS box required) and to not be discouraged by the super low screen resolution.
