Radar Picket

You are the last ship on the picket line, and all you can see is the radar scope. Contacts are invisible until the sweep paints them. Then they come at you from every bearing: fighters, bombers, sea-skimming missiles, fast boats, drone swarms and the raid leaders that launch them.

How it plays

• Watch the scope. Echoes fade between sweeps and leave a ghost at their last fix. Red is hostile, yellow is unknown, and blue is friendly. Don't shoot blue.
• Walk the flak onto them. Hold to fire. Rounds burst at the range of your aim point, so lead fast targets. The close-in gun takes anything that gets within 2 nautical miles, until it runs dry.
• Refit between waves. Kills pay salvage. Spend it on 23 upgrade lines across guns, radar, automation and hull. Lose the ship and you keep every upgrade.
• Until the ship defends itself. Fire control, flak that aims itself, an escort destroyer, then fighters on patrol.
