Magic Detection Radar is a device that detects the magic of living things. It was developed by Holy Milishial Empire.
Description[]
As it name says, it is device that is used to detect magic in living things. On the other hand, their ability to detect scientifically powered aircraft is quite poor. So how did it detected the ships of the Gra Valkas Empire?
It turns out that the Gra Valkans have also magic. A little, but enough to be detected by the Magic Detection Radar.
Comparison to Radar[]
This detection distance exceeds the radar line-of-sight range for large ships around 40 km on Earth. However, in this world, since the horizon is far from the earth, simple comparisons cannot be made and the magic is detected in the specifications, so it is different from the earth's radar. Comparing the United States radars such as CXSM, SC-2, and FC Mark 3 with 1.5 times the detection distance of surface ships on Earth, large ships are roughly equal, and the detection distance for destroyers is about twice as good as that of magic detectors.
It is unknown whether the magic detector can be used as shooting radar, but it will be practical enough as warning radar. Thus, night-thinning attacks with a magic power boat appear to be more difficult than on Earth.
The SC-2 radar has a detection range of 74 km for fighters and 148 km for bombers. The Sus-35 Infrared Search and Tracking System (IRST) OLS-35 has a head-on detection range of 50 km and a tracking distance of 90km.

Service History[]
The magic detection radar of the Holy Milishial Empire‘s Zeroth Magic Fleet detects the fleet of the Gra Valkas Empire at a distance of about 60 km. The type of ship was also accurate. It seems that there are about 200 crew members on a destroyer, so if these numbers of people are on board, it can be detected at 60 km.
At the Battle of Baltica, the reconnaissance aircraft was detected and reported on at the same time, and more than 150 formations were noticed by the 8th Squadron, but at that point it was already 50 km away. Even if the formation is thought to total over 200 people, if the magical power is dispersed, it seems that there is only a performance that is not much different from the visual detection in the daytime and visible. In addition, it was impossible to detect the approach of the submarine even though they did not know its existence, so it seems impossible to detect underwater magic.
