You want to play Rowan's Battle of Britain campaign, and you are ready to send out a Spitfire patrol. But which airfields have Spits? What you need is an Order of Battle. Now suppose you are flying for the Luftwaffe, and you are wondering how far away the Chain Home Low stations will detect an incoming flight? What you need is a map that shows the radar's detection ranges.

In this strategy piece, Len "Viking1" Hjalmarson shows you the hows and whys of Orders of Battle and provides some handy maps of British radar detectection ranges and capabilities.

Another great article, Len! Keep 'em coming! You figure all this stuff out on your own? You are either a genius, or you have an inside connection, which is it?
flybri out.
