It does not.
Radar is an interactive sensor and usually the reflections from the target is above background EM noise and these contrasts aid in the tracking of the target.
Infrared (IR) is a passive sensor and it also requires contrasts between the target and an IR background.
Aural is another passive sensor and also require contrasts between noise sources, such as differences in freq and amplitude between the violin, the tuba, and the cymbal in a symphony.
The keyword here is 'contrast'. Optical sensor is no different except that it require contrast in the visual wavelength. So if the target is beyond the visual sensitivity of the camera or simply out of range, then the optical sensor simply will not be of much help. Also does not help if the target is painted camouflage.
in an unrelated subject since you are professional at the field of air defense i d like to ask a question a friend of mine told me that one pantiser s1 is better than the avenger + Chaparral + slamraam all combined is this true
