Radar Scanner is the Monkey Village's path 2 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons Monkey City. It grants Camo detection to all towers in it's radius, and on the Flash version of Bloons Monkey City, it provides a small range increase. This upgrade also provides Camo detection to the village itself for the purposes of the village itself attacking with Energy Beacon, and Subs firing through its range with Advanced Intel.

Radar Scanner is a consistent method of dealing with Camos, especially in loadouts that lack Camo detection such as some types of Monkey Teams as well as tiles that ban Ninja Monkeys. It is somewhat expensive, however, and generally not advised to pre-buy it until dangerous Camo rushes come out. Some of the best moments to buy it include Round 4+ Monkeys from Space and any round after about Round 12 in normal tiles (Round 6 on Bloon Beacon). Against weak Camos, it is preferred to tank them, buy cheap Camo detectors, or use Road Spikes.
