◎ SIGNATURE MANAGEMENT
What are signatures? EM (electromagnetic) drives radar detection distance. IR (infrared) is heat signature. Cross-section (CS) is physical radar profile. Lower signatures = harder to detect. Components like power plants, shields, and thrusters affect each signature.

Detection Range Estimator
Approximate scanner range (km) to detect your ship at full EM signature. Actual detection depends on pilot skill, distance, and scanner type.
