Is it possible to configure a ground mapping radar to target ships and the like? Or is the function hardcoded to just show the terrain and that's it. Reason I ask is that I want to have a better anti-ship capability with Harpoons vs. the E visual target function...

Ships show up for me in GM mode, Eric. In the avionics.ini for the aircraft in question, add these settings, if they're not already there:

 

[RadarDisplay]

ImageFadeTime=2.0

[RadarDisplayGround_Map]

ImageSize=12.0

or whatever value suits your fancy

Duh! Just realized that you were asking about ground targeting. The answer is no, currently, there's no way to designate any type of ground target via radar. The Maxvisible distance value in the target's data.ini is the only variable that one can play with that allows you to target a given object at range.
