Steal the WRG WW2 or Modern acquisition rules?

There's also a freeware set of coastal warfare rules called "Hunters on
the
Shoreline" with a simpler version:
(paraphrase follows)

						 Max. spotting range
Die roll	   small target    med. target	large target
1			  150m		 300m	      600m
2			  200m		 400m	      800m
3			  250m		 500m	     1000m
4			  300m		 600m	     1200m
5			  350m		 700m	     1400m
6			  400m		 800m	     1600m

Inside this distance, a size-specific die is rolled for each target, d4,
d6
etc. - a scorer of 4 or less is spotted.

You could modify this so that e.g. in the table above, "small target"
becomes perhaps "Infantry", medium target becomes "Vehicles up to size
2"
etc.
