Well off the top of my head, an active radar ping fade out is, relative
to
the range to the target, proportional to 1/r*r*r*r. Passively listening
to
enemy pings is proportional to 1/r*r. So passive should have the range
advantage, but the target has to be broadcasting/pinging.
I'd say the FT/MT sensor ranges better represent listening passively for
non-sensor emissions within 36" and then actively pinging obvious
targets
within 54"; ie. active and passive is apples and oranges.
