That's because there is only one radar truck. If it was a pack of 24, it would take 24 times longer to build. You don't usually need more than one truck.

Also, the stealth strength of a radar truck is extremely low. Active radar stands out like a beacon. That is why HARM missiles exist...

Keep it out of the front line and stick it on a high terrain (G key toggle). Don't move it to a battle hex (like I do - by accident

).

I lose a lot of units by clicking them and accidentally clicking someplace else!

The feature than enables to the "move to" command automatically when a unit is selected is sometimes problematic...

Yakaspat. Ditto.

I do that quite a lot. Another annoying thing is ordering a non-amphibious unit to cross a river and it paths to go around the obstacle and drive through a stack of enemy units...

It's alright if these are tanks/infantry but they always seem to be artillery and supply trucks

Usually I can catch them in time.

I now try to move just a small group of units at a time when they're near the front line...
