Default Feds Want to Equipe Gliders With Transponders and Radios

How slow does a target need to be to be undisplayed -typically? I
would have thought that even a glider is fast (45 knots) compared to
usual clutter.


There are two windmill farms about twenty miles northeast of Green Bay that
break through the Moving Target Indicator. The windmills are stationary, of
course, but the moving rotors are detected.
