Is TWS supposed to be that bad?

I don’t play fox 3 tiers much but I play it once in a while sometimes. I’ve came to noticed that TWS seems to have very bad tracking.

For example I would get a target on the radar, with a green box around it, okay well. It would either freeze in place, then reappear few seconds later, or if the target is gone the radar would switch targets on its own.

And the TWS mode is really clumsy for close range. Most of the times I just switch to ACM mode to get a quick lock for a particular target, without having to cycle all targets all again.

Is there a way to make TWS Less clumsy to use on close range? Y’know, some missiles such as R-77 are close range only and demands the use of TWS so DL don’t ruin its course

This happens not just on Russian radars (famously bad) but also F-15E and EF-2000, top grade stuff.

Thats just CAPTOR being CAPTOR. This is also supposed to be the “fixed” version. Unfixed version was borderline unusable.

Get PESA or AESA radar, because gaijin wont be fixing mechanical radars anytime soon.
