Can anybody tell me why german eurofighter gets 180x180 however british and italian get 200x180?
200x200 (the 180 is a bug)
Basically Hensoldt advertises the ECRS Mk.1 (on German EF) as ±90 while Leonardo advertises the ECRS Mk.2 (on the other two) as ±100.
They have the exact same repositioner iirc, but unfortunately that’s what the sources say.

They don’t, Mk2 uses a different one, Mk 0 (which has ±100 FoR) and Mk 1 (which has ±90 FoR) on the other hand do have the same repositioner.

But not the same antenna. As thats the only component that it appears Hensoldt swapped on the Mk.0
then why was this report for ground NCTR accepted as a general report when it only offers sources for the Mk.1?

If anyone has an idea how to call the part I am open for Ideas…
Uh… this is ECRS Mk.2, is this also a known bug?
Yes that’s established, but the lock/acquisition patterns (all of them!) are now 180x180
All ECRS variants are doing high res SAR for targeting;
Antenna isn’t doing the NCTR its the hardware in the back that is processing the SAR imagery it isn’t processed in the antenna.

Because it doesn’t only offer sources for Mk 1.

Doesnt say anything if the Mk.2 has the SAR resolution for ground NCTR.
Hensoldt is the only one highlighting the SAR resolution

… if the mk2 and mk0 typhoons doesn’t have high sar resolution why is it a feature they show off in their radar videos

I’m seeing video by Hensoldt (Mk.1), video by Hensoldt (Mk.1) and EADS paper for German Eurofighter (so probably Mk.1)
The video is not for ecrs mk1 its from bae sytems
the video titled " HENSOLDT Eurofighter Radar Mk1" is not for the ECRS Mk.1?
The image gunjob showed is from this video. Where does it say mk1? It’s from BAE systems. Also it shows ±100 fov

The EADS paper dates from the time of CAESAR, so would logically be relevant to the entire CAPTOR-E family.

ah, so its entirely unrelated to CAPTOR
