🔍 Key Concepts

• How a Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) responds when swept by a 3 cm (X-band) radar • The visual pattern that appears on the X‑band radar display when a SART is activated and interrogated • The difference between radar displays, AIS indications, and GMDSS audible alarms

💭 Think About

• Which of these options describes something that appears directly on the 3 cm radar screen as a result of radar energy hitting the SART? • Think about the standard IMO training diagrams for SART responses: what shape or pattern is shown on the X‑band radar when you are getting closer to the SART? • Which options describe other systems (AIS or GMDSS) that are not the primary designed indication of a SART’s radar response?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that a SART is designed to be detected on X‑band radar, not primarily via AIS or MF/HF/VHF audio alarms • Recall that the classic SART indication begins as a series of equally spaced responses along a line from the center of your radar display • Check which answer choice mentions a pattern of returns on the radar display itself, not an alarm from another system
