Shooting your main gun will add to your detection range for 20 seconds.

If AA is enabled and it’s attacking planes this will add approx +1.3 km surface detection and +2 km air detection.įire and AA are fixed rated penalties for all ships, extinguish the fire and disabling AA will remove the penalties. Ships that are on fire will have a penalty added of approximately +2 km surface and +3 km air detection to their ship’s base values. Scout Planes can find ships within 4 km and see ships up to 11 km with clear line of sight.Ĭarrier planes can find ships within 8 km and see ships up to 11 km with clear line of sight.Īnd in reverse, scout planes can be detected from both surface and air at 4 km range and carrier planes get detected from both surface and air at 8 km range.Īctions that cause you to be spotted from a larger range include the following: You can not be spotted outside of your surface detection range by another surface vessel regardless of what kind of modules or captain skills the enemy has acquired.Īir Detection means the range at which a plane has to be in order for your ship to show up on owner’s radar. Surface Detection means the range at which another ship has to be in order for your ship to show up on their radar.
