The new radar parts come in 5 sizes: the smallest is just a single voxel, there are 2 medium vehicle sized units, the radar dish and the AWACS style units. The larger units are more powerful with greater ranges.

The first 8 on/off channels show if a target is detected, while the number channels tell you the range, pivot and pitch angles, and time since detection for the contact. You can set the pivot and pitch field of views to set your detection arcs, as well as your sweep mode (static, clockwise and anti-clockwise rotation, and wiper modes). You can also pitch your detector up and down.

The most important aspect of the new radar parts is the ability to track vehicles that are outside of load range. This is vital for fighting the enemy AI air and navy (in the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1542360/Stormworks_Search_and_Destroy/]upcoming weapons expansion[/url]), where radar gives the player the essential ability to gather intelligence, avoid the enemy force, or engage from range.
