OTH radars are very large arrays, as in meters, dozens of meters, or even hundreds of meters in array size.Nope.
OTH radar is keeping track of the carrier.
And a large amount of J-20s are also there to provide more accurate targeting information.A combination of satellites, OTH radar, ships, and Chinese Global Hawk will be keeping track of your carrier even before the shooting war has started.
Eyeballing the US Air Force Over the Horizon-Backscatter Transmitting Array
An OTH array does not need to be completely destroyed, just need to have a part damaged and that will sufficiently deform any beam to render the array worthless.The Over-The-Horizon Backscatter Radar, often described as the world's largest radar, was developed over 25 years for $1.5 billion and occupies an area nearly twice the size of New York's Central Park.
And we would know exactly where those Chinese OTH stations are.We know exactly where you are.
You think China is the first one to think of the OTH?
