"Very true...in fact when a sailor falls overboard and the signal goes out over ships comms, the first thing the bridge crew does is not to turn around, but to turn off its SPY-1 radar systems otherwise it will "cook" that sailor in the water."
UUUUHHHHH, SPY-1 RADAR=AIR, radar would do nothing to a swimmer in the water unless the radome fell on his head. You must be thinking of sonar or the ships fathometer not a radar. But if someone was standing infromt of the radome while it was radiating they might be in trouble.
