"as the SHAR radar was far better a seeing the "enemy" at long range than that in the F3."
Then the F3s must have had radar snags - not an unusual occurance. HPRF clear region detection space and all that. The BV had some great features but long range detection was not it's strong suit- anyone with any knowledge of HPRF/FMICW and MPRF will tell you that. And yes, I have flown both.
