The term "radiation" can mean many things and doesn't necessarily mean
"nuclear radiation". High power radar antennas emit radiation and are a
recognized hazard to human health if you spend any time in close proximity
to them. These antennas often have RADHAZ (radiation hazard) warnings
posted near them warning people that it is not healthy to be too close to
them. Although I am not sure if a warship would have these warnings.

Just for the record - I was once aboard an -ex DDR Parchim class corvette laying
at the naval base in Rostock in 1992, and she had large circles or curves painted
on the deck which clearly was warning for radar antenna radiation.
