Oy Gewalt ! The 'impossible' appears to have happened : Syrian and Iraqi 001071 flying at the same time !I fitted the maps of both trackers together and there they are : TKTIKTB2 outside of Syria in the East and TB2T97 in Syria near Edlib in the West. The distance between them is around 600 km so it is unlikely their respective ground controllers can see each other or each other's drones. But why can't either tracker see both ? Both have a rule in their code that says there can't be two the same mode-s codes in the air ? I would be surprised. And even so why then does AirNav not and in fact never track any of the other drones ? It's not like there aren't any about.
How do other systems, like the tracker in a jet, respond to duplicate mode-s codes in it's field of vision ? Suppose you're the K35R flying on the border with Iraq near Ash Shaddadi, in the picture here. How does the world look from there ? And what do the Turkish radars etc see ?
Question. Questions.
