Activating Targets
When you convert a sleeping target to an activated target, that target's course
and speed are shown with a vector. You can easily judge target movement by
monitoring the vector.
Sleeping targets within an acquisition zone are automatically changed to
activated targets and are colored red. See section 3.14 for details.
