The radar unit is a handheld computer or computerized gauntlet that contains a powerful phased array radar system. It does not work in enclosed spaces, but in an open area it maps the terrain and detects objects regardless of visibility. The radar unit’s display can be zoomed in and out to any radius up to 200 miles, though only solid objects of Large size or bigger can be detected beyond 50 miles.

Use of the radar unit requires a move action and a Spot check with a +10 bonus.

Radar is an active sensor, meaning that it emits a signal rather than passively receiving input. Any character using an electricomp or other sensor capable of detecting electromagnetic activity may spot its use.
