I'm interested in developing the Type-S Scouts in my campagn, can someone
tell me more about this EMM. Bear in mind that I *only* have the
original Traveller (& Striker), so I'm not even familiar with the
"MegaTraveller" rules and equipment.

Err, except the Long Wavelength-Over the Horizon-Early warning radars.
The Wingspan of the Stealth aircraft, is of the order of magnitude of the
wavelength used, you get a nice lot of resonance and a huge reflection
(or so I heard claimed by an RAF radar expert recently)

Nice ideas.......
