I'm building a scenario, but don't quite understand the different Satellite nomenclature in Command. Can anyone explain to me the difference between IMGSAT, MASINT, NOSS, and SIGINT in terms of how they behave in the scenarios?

Thanks,
lb

Thanks!

So from my I'm reading on the Wiki, for a naval battlespace the Noss should give me the most useful tracks and passes yes?

If the enemy is not under strict EMCON, yes. Else SAR (radar) satellites will be useful to detect ships, and optical to identify them (if the weather is clear).
