why is this only exclusive to the anniversary skins
Likely those were the first one who got updated/reworked because my Report had only Pictures with the Base color (Grey)
Thats it we need decompression now, rafale in shambles first the fuel nerf and now this?
Does gaijin even care about the EF at this point? if they didnt want to model the captor-m then JUST CHANGE IT TO AN AESA PLACEHOLDER BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD REMOVE THE SEA VIXEN CRAP we know you pamper to france and US mains but at least make it usable, can a game master or anyone who can communicate with the bug fix team do something about this? quite literally wasted 4 dayw grinding it with the arch phantom only to realize that the perfomance was soo gimped like that …
There is a recent bug report made by @Morvran for the radar issues, hopes up we get something out of it.
Also if you have specific issues on video, you can submit them and they will probably be added to the report.

i dont have video but i can give some insight:
-TWS straight up unusable with ghosting and horribly slow scan time
-HMD takes too long to get a lock and also its easy to notch for some reason
-datalink tendency to stop working at all making fox 3’s stop tracking
-mising IRST (though germany didnt equip it but they already had bought the PIRATE IRST so they could equip it on war time)
-missing a lot of hud elements in cockpit view
inb4 the report is closed by the same guy who instantly ignores all EF bug reports because “marketing propaganda”
huh well you look at that, it was accepted! quite rare to see and now hopefully it doesnt get stuck in the “fowarded to the devs” limbo…
Are you using wide scan/regular or narrow one?
Cause regular and narrow works fine most of the time.
This is quite weird since my HMD instantly locks on target,assuming this experience changes depending on user.
i could use it but then what’s the point? it shouldnt be forced to narrow the search box to mantain a constant lock in TWS…
since we already have spice bombs in the new update, i made a bug report for the ef2000 Community Bug Reporting System

For some reason the Typhoon is PD only, it should have SRC as well, which means that the radar is just instantly notched. I need to have a chat with Gunjob about that at some point. Especially in the ACM/HMD modes. But there is certainly an issue that even when the target isnt notching, the HMD/ACM still sometimes wont lock on.
But the bug report submitted for Typhoon ACM/HMD not working right got closed for a lack of information, so i’ll have a go at creating that bug report if I can get it to occur in a match.
I’ve had the “ghosting” issue occur in narrow scan multiple times. In fact my new report for the TWS issues were exclusively using the narrow scan mode to eliminate that as being a potential cause.
This screenshot shows the issue quite nicely. The target is the flaming ball just behind the tail that I’ve highlighted with the red circle. He was traveling down and to the left. The radar is clearly pointing at the target in narrow scan. The Third person marker is off to the far right and traveling away. If I were to have fired an AMRAAM, the missile would head for the marker off to the far right and not the target.
It happens to me from time to time but usually narrow scan doesnt let me down too much.
Nonetheless it should be fixed.
Narrow scan is fine when you know where the jet is…When you are hunting a jet in ground battles or air RB it is a massive hinderance
To say the least, because you just can’t trust your own radar as well. You can’t just scan the part of the map and be sure nobody is there. Playing EF in GRB is like a horror movie.

Yeah, even worse in SB. God knows how many times I’ve scanned something, and it’s not shown up on the radar
But that’s the worst part of the radar at the moment…you can trust it
imho*, the main problem with using a narrow scan sector is displaying the target’s altitude (in the cockpit). As far as I remember (SiCrIT documents), the Typhoon’s RWR can also display the target’s altitude profile. It would be nice if this were implemented as a separate MFD page for the radar, but damn it. Even if I see a signal on the RWR, I still have to spend time manually guiding it.

Especially annoying as the VWS will give you a vague indication if where the RWR warning is. Could really do with the external RWR screen having an alt indicator for contacts. Even if that is just an arrow above or below the the target
