I was just thinking, how is it right, for some pre-industrial nation, to be able to see an F-14 flying miles above their territory? I think you should have to build radar in order to "see" air units. Just think about it, it would actually make perfect sense! That way you could also surprise your enemy with a rain of terror from above! This is what happened at Pearl Harbor... we didn't see it coming and look what happened! Also, this would even allow stealth air units to actually have a stealth ability (finally). They wouldn't be seen on radar. Get what I'm saying? Hehe, okayz, just give it some thought

I believed Mark or Dan said one time this site was called another name some time ago and maybe some of these people are from the original site.

If you hear the noise of the aircraft you would look up to see what the noise is. Japan did not have radar either and the U.S. bomb them in 1942.
Are you asking that radar can not be discover until after aircraft is discover?

Well I guess... Radar was discovered after flight. However maybe I should change what I'm saying then. How about if you have planes, you can have them "on alert" or scouting, and they can see other planes (obviously). That way, the benifite with radar is that you don't have to devote your resources as much towards that. Well this is just my 2 cents, I'm sure all of you can put loopholes into it, but then again, that's civ for ya.

Where I live I can hear jet aircraft up to 30,000 or more feet when outside. We are in the traffic pattern for Seattle, Portland, San Francisco flight, and maybe L.A. The plane are high enough that it is very hard to see the tail if at all. Most of the time you hear the noise look up and see this small silver item with almost no wings and watch the contrail.

This is exactly my point. Without radar, how can you prove that your territory has been violated by air? Unless you actually had one of your planes go up and see an enemy? What I'm proposing, is an actual USE for radar in in civ 3. Something that was notably absent from civ 2. In civ 2, you could have stealth bombers and fighters, but that "stealth" name ment jack ****! If we actually implimented radar, stealth would be of enormous importance.
