You would be surprised.
I hope am I! I just get the CR2 arguments…no data probably has the same armour as the 80s Vickers prototype…

Publicly available information so far unfortunately points towards scan speed being 70°s.

Gaijin doesn’t care to make educated guesses. They would rather insist that tech doesn’t advance beyond a certain point than do so.
How we can be so sure that Gaijin will not say things like “Marketing lie” again?

We can’t be sure…
We know what the scan speed is, we just can’t say it here. No, it’s not 70 deg/sec either. much faster than that.
Is there a way to increase chaff dropped per key press in game? Because BOL chaff is already garbage, plus with only 1 drop per key chaffing stuff is harder than it should be.
Found this on the captor. I know Gaijin wont accept the source, but its something.
" In 1997 Marconi indicated CAPTOR had detected fighter sized aircraft at ranges of well over 160km and larger aircraft at double that. More recent information indicates the systems range accuracy is within 10 metres while it can obtain a target angle to within 1 miliradian. The system is capable of tracking 20 air targets simultaneously, automatically identifying and prioritising them. When in the track list the appropriate weapon can be automatically selected (a function in part of the ACS) and using auto-attack the aircraft can be flown under autopilot to a selected air target. All of these capabilities are designed to significantly reduce the workload of the pilot during combat operations."
“Even though CAPTOR features a mechanically steered array, BAE Systems have indicated that the low inertia non-counterbalanced antenna coupled with four high torque, high precision samarium-cobalt drive motors allows extremely high scanning speeds. As a consequence of this the radar can interleave different operations such as air and ground mapping. This is quite an achievement for a non-phased array system.”

Any update for Captor-M??

Not going to happen in the near future.
Thing is already incredibly busted in GRB. Funny how there is no complaining thread yet though, when NATO get’s it’s fine i guess.
Well, nato still lacks fast ATGM with long range and 3rd gen thermals isnt it.
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.

its a SAL atgm missle, whatever u do its wont be as busted as the russian ones with incredible range.
brimstone 2s still could easily be added without problems
Do we have data for that? If not, they wont touch it.
No because its nonsense, the speed is 70Deg/s.
4 x 140 in 8 seconds is 70deg/s
Another one 4x140 in 8 seconds is 70 deg/s
It is only capable of a “faster” scan in Data Adaptive mode where in it can “jump” to a target briefly at a higher speed.

Well, due to bug, its doing 4x60 in 8+ seconds…
Its around 65°/s ingame i think.
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
It is 65deg/s in game right now, I’ve reported it, thanks to the stuff @Flame2512 found above.
