Oh, so that’s what gimbal is? I assumed it was only the physical rotation angle since, well, it’s called gimbal
You gotta be a gigachad like wreckingares
I guess it depends on personal understanding and context - in this context (lol).

Best available Primary source for ECRS is “more than 8x CAPTOR-M” so 8x70 means the scan rate should inexcess of 560 deg/sec. At that kind of speed I would call it near enough instant :D
But the BS thing is that the IBRIS has its correct scan rate that is higher than the artificially nerfed scan rate of ECRS, very annoying

They just don’t wanna make the EFTs good
Yeah…
Id just settle for them fixing the animation for the engines (its inverted in reheat and looks wierd) and fixing the cockpit HUD

Jamming while scan ? Are you sure ? Like… really sure ?
Or are you confusing the praetorian jammers pods on the wing tips with Captor
I just want to see atleast 1 EFT with the AMK, EJ230 and the TVC nozzles,
Thing would be an absolute dogfight monster
Add ECRS Mk.2 and the “Beast mode” (that doesn’t exist) and it would become one helluva BVR mobile too
I wouldnt be surprised if it could but at the bare minimum it can aid in EW simutaneously
The digitized signals from the antennas are analysed in the receiver unit, a component jointly manufactured by Leonardo UK and Hensoldt in Germany. It has three distinct receiving channels, making it the first fighter radar in NATO to do so. Each of the channels has its own set of tasks: the first channel is assigned with target acquisition, the second channel is responsible for track management in both air and ground modes and the third data channel is employed for screening and classifying Electronic Warfare (EW) sources and suppression of side lobes, improving the radars electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) capacity. The ECCM channel also enables the radar to carry out jammer mapping, a function allowing the identification of EW threats that are targeting the aircraft. - Source
Haha yeah, would be hilarious to mess about with
10-15% more thrust TVC, and the absolute shinanigans of AMK (like 10-20% better ITR and STR iirc with basic EJ200)
I am sure yes
why do you think we chose a Mech scan instead of an Early ESA???
Yep, I doubt the game engine would handle it :D
How can you have a radar with only one mechanically steered beam jam a target while scanning simultaneously…
It can probably jam, but not while scanning. Or it can scan while providing data to the jammers on board.
Welp, looks like what is most likely the camo reward for the F-16 event has been datamined and it’s ugly.

It can most likely interleave. Switching between Scanning and Jammer rapidly. Dont forget the pedestal can move at 333deg/sec. Especially when you also factor in PIRATE using its TWS to maintain track on targets as well. But it would likely work best when focusing in on one target, much like the Foxhunter use to render Mig-29s and Su-27 completely unable to use their radars if being targeted by it
There’s also the MKI from 2009 iirc

Yeah, there’s multiple iterations that gaijin can give to Russia.
They can also just give Russia a fully decked out Indian 30mki if they really wanted to
Just thought I hope Hungarian low tier air comes with the Ju-87A
