Is it true that icebergs remain a hazard to ships despite modern radar and satellite tracking?
Unclear. Several peer-reviewed sources indicate icebergs still pose serious hazards to maritime navigation and that small icebergs remain difficult to detect or precisely locate even with radar and satellite monitoring. None of the retrieved items directly compares modern radar and satellite tracking against the persistence of iceberg hazard, so the evidence only partially covers the claim.
