Radar systems provide [[UFO Detection]] for bases. The Small Radar System is a basic radar that is cheap and quick to build.

	Every thirty minutes of game time, each base with a Small Radar has a 10% chance of detecting a UFO within an approximate 1300-1500 mile radius (this may vary based on UFO size), and can track existing contacts up 2000 mile radius. If you advance the time an hour or day at a time, it will make multiple checks and interrupt if a UFO is detected, setting the time to be at whatever point the detection happened (even if it is only five seconds after the last update).

	Note the base in the image is located slightly SE of Budapest (at the base between the E and S when zoomed in the maximum). ~~Note that the~~ outer ring is based on the extents that a UFO can be tracked to, the detection radius seems to be only 67-75% or so of this range, but this may vary according to the UFO size (needs determining). Ranges may also vary according to the latitude that bases are built at (needs checking).
