With priority track this wouldn’t even be an issue. You could perfectly manage TWS with 70°/s if it jumped and refreshed your main tracks. Though i heavily doubt the radar is going to be deleting contacts after what is it 4 seconds if the scan cycle takes longer than that.
IMO that features is the most important one to be fixed currently, more than PIRATE queuing, more than the flight models underperforming regions, more than the radars absolute range and power.
The scanning speed in the horizon should be 105+ degrees, and we currently have 65 degrees. 333 degrees per second is needed to update data on already detected targets. It should still have a power from 1.25 kW to 4.5 kW (the power in the game is currently 0.6 kW). The radar also has the ability to change the pulse frequency to low, medium and high within the same scan line as needed. A Fighter should be able to see the target at 100km+, but he can see it now at 70km. Currently, only the average frequency is used.
I flew here to ASB on EFT and on Mirage-2000 5F. The Mirad radar works 100,000 times better and can scan and see (hold) targets in a soft lock without resetting already detected contacts.
not really a reason to complain, it was artifically nerfed for a good reason, and i quite frankly think its way too early to add it cuz a lot of spaa’s cant counter this missile, but honestly its not that far away from the russian KH-38 ML, except that the Brimstone has the advantage of it being more versatile due to the way it can be launched, and the KH-38 ML has range and speed advantage, also little correction a lot of people did complain aobut the Brimstones due to the gps guidance and loft capacities
And the bug of reapeating top/bottom bar and repeating pattern backwards on all radars? Is there any progress with this one? Because if anything, THIS is causing issues, not lacking poor 5°/s.
It’s saying “a mechanical scanning system”, so it’s completly unclear if the CAPTOR-M is used as reference here. It’s more likely that the predessors of the entire CAPTOR-Family (APG-65, Sea Vixen, etc.) are used as reference here.

It will probably continue to be operated by Airbus for a few more years now P4E has been contracted
We don’t accept such reports currently, so whilst there will always be some low quality reports, they are not in the majority. What you proposed (to start accepting reports that don’t provide any values of any meaning and just use the words “better” or “improved” with no specific detail as to the what, how or by how much) would simply generate a near endless amount of reports that would allow people to try “buffing” or equally “nerfing” aircraft based on no factual detail at all.
Simply because of the fact that some quality reports are attempted now, does not mean its viable to accept 10-20x that amount and is a very strange reasoning to try to justify.
We have a baseline minimum standard that allows for some leeway and allows people to submit two secondary sources as suggestions for modern vehicles already.
