We have detected a surface contact.

Unknown surface contacts are given the brevity code SKUNK, which is derived from 'Surface Contact - UNKnown'. Most radars will only be able to detect the position, heading, and speed of a surface contact, however some newer and more advanced sets can identify surface contacts through Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and other technologies.

Unfortunately, the radars carried by your patrol boat do not have this capability. In order to identify surface contacts, we will need to use passive sensors such as ESM or visual sensors.

Change course if necessary (F3) and continue to close with the detected contact at Flank speed.
