Most likely the same way they detected other AMAIM mechs via their radar like you can see early on in this episode. They guessed right, they waited at the right spot where Amou would headed and they saw a sole fishing boat with the detected Kenbu aboard.

Gai said he covered Amou's cellphone from detection. Gai never said he can do the same to Kenbu. The fact that the Asian army knew Kenbu was on board the fishing boat despite being covered with tarp should tell us that the army had no problem detecting the Kenbu with their system.

Also, don't ask me how a Kenbu work. Let the show itself explains later. One thing is for sure: the Asian army can detect the Kenbu within certain distance. Let's see how it will hold up in the following episodes.

I don't really buy that they can detect Kenbu. This is a completely unknown, unregistered mech. Unless it emits a special kind of heat signature or something, they should have no way to locate it.

See? I think they can detect Kenbu with their radar (or satellite whatever) just like how they detect other AMAIMs.

So either they have some way to track AMAIMs with ease. Which will make any heroing the MC and friends do in the future impossible. Or they have so much surveillance on the Japan that they can pick out one boat(in the incredibly large area he could have been moving in) as holding terrorists with basically no evidence. Which will make any heroing the MC and friends do in the future impossible. Or they found him because the plot needed it and him and his friends will be able to hide from them with no problems in the future. Which one would you want to bet on? |

So you see, mecha-detecting radar is not a big deal in mecha shows. Radar has limitations. The Asian army in this episode was simply acting smart. They have the radar. They were waiting at the right border where they predicted Amou would go. They saw a sole fishing boat where no other boats dare to come to the area and they hit the jackpot. Why is that so hard to process? Even if Amou turned Kenbu's engine off, the Asian squad will still capture the boat due to it being fishy (no pun intended). With Kenbu's engine turned on, the Asian army got all the confirmation they needed to shoot at the boat.

AMAIMs must be radiating a specific signature when online that wouldn't be classified as a boat on their radars, and the Kenbu was on standby while Gai controled the boat remotely so they were able to detect the Kenbu as they entered the range of their radars

Off topic aside. I'm digging the Mc hairstyle. Is he mixed? Does he have a nappy haired parent ? I'd be elated to find out. Happy to see Kenbu, ai, Amou combo not a Gary Stu they can be overwhelmed with numbers and tactics. Plot armor dictate he be saved or else th journey would have ended right there. He would have been killed and Kenbu salvaged. What could they do with the ai though; can he be hacked? Or does he compromise all electronics by being brought near them. I don't think he can speed hack everything or else that gun would have been functional.
