It takes ~8 second in total to preform 4 bar 140 wide scan. Radar will quickly jump to the target every bar to update it. So yea, update every ~2s.

Is it still possible for Gaijin to fix the Catcher M, the Catcher M is now worse than any radar above 13.0 (except for N001
you are correct the Vixen was just comparable with the AN/APG 65 but the Vixen radar and the captor M have a lot of years of difference
nop i have funny news the 12.0 FGR2 radar is better at locking and tracking XDDD

And guess what… It takes 8sec to do current 4bar ±60(first refresh of first bar). With that bug fixed, it would be sub 4 seconds to refresh first bar. 140*4 would be around 8 seconds.
The radar is ok… BUG IS KILLING IT
Fixing that bug will literally MORE THAN DOUBLE refresh rate of captor.

i really hope all of this complaining is heired … right FBI snail agent ?
The AN/APG-65 was the predecessor to the MSD2000, not the CAPTOR-M. CAPTOR-M was previously known as ECR-90, which was developed from Blue Vixen.
There was a competition to decide which radar would be used and every nation apart from Germany wanted the ECR-90, on account of MSD2000 not meeting many of the requirements. However Germany refused to accept the ECR-90 (on somewhat spurious grounds), and ended up delaying the selection of the radar for two years before finally giving in and letting ECR-90 be selected.
So if anything that means CAPTOR-M was even more of an improvement over APG-65 that it otherwise would have been.

Has that been bug reported then?
I don’t think so. Owner should do it when he gets everything he needs. Also Bug report site is dead.
Not a surprise, they are still working on almost everything this rushed patch has thrown out

Current radar isnt ±60° TWS scan, its 60° flat.
If what was said above is to be believed the radar should be scanning the entirety of its gimbal in the time its currently scanning a fraction of it, and the TWS scan modes arent scanning even half the volume they should be.
It will but those missiles wont be added to this version (or I would be surprised if theyn were) They will likely produce another EF varaint with the new gen IIR missiles and improvements
So it is likely that while the TYphoon in UK service leverages the ASRAAM as a 40km IR missile we will only get the 4km range Aim9m and 120s on this FGR.4 (early)
I dont think we have public sources for that. These values are from manual and they wont take it.
the sad part is that there might be one, maybe two hotfix patches if they deploy one next monday but iirc, once western christmas holidays starts, they are not releasing and then we have to wait through russian holidays.
If we wont get radar bug fixed within next 2 work days, EF will suck through holidays and some more.

Trying to find out what the sources are for whoever wrote this.
Yeah unfortunately
Trying to grind this plane is currently very painful, my experience with the radar in a nutshell, with a 1 minute clip :
- TWS is blind
- HMD is iffy
- THE FREAKING ACQUISITION BUG WHERE IT GET STUCK
- At least SRC PD mode works, but holy heck i’m not playing a 14.0 aircraft to use the SRC PD, I have my EJ Kai for this.
(+ Clouds everywhere, it’s starting to get really annoying)

@Smin1080p_WT are there any news on this front?

As you can see above… its creating huge issues with EF radar as refresh of first bar takes whopping 8 seconds. Same as its storage time. Then there are russian radars too.
Its really big deal this one and really shouldnt be in game for such a long time
