Paradox Interactive has today released the first developer diary entry of 2009 for their upcoming PC title, Hearts of Iron III, written by Lead Developer Johan Andersson. In the new entry, Johan discusses military intelligence and what lies behind the enemy lines.

Johan writes, "With that in mind, let's talk about a nice little change from Hearts of Iron 2. The radar station is no longer just a radar station but is now an intelligence-gathering site. The radar station is now also a signal intercept and analysis station, giving you (and the bad guys, mustn't forget about them) the ability to peer behind enemy lines. The bigger the radar station, the better you are at doing this."
