The Typhoon is still a good platform.
The Mk1 is still an exceptionally good radar which fixes the Typhoons biggest issue its had this past year
It is also getting SPICE-250s, and hopefully we can milk a little more out of it for this update.
Its also probably going to be the platform that will get advanced A2A, I guess within the next 6 months.
So how high a priority you place it is up to you, but it is certainly worth working towards and unlocking sooner rather than later.
Hello.
Is there any updates of this?
Thank you.
As far as I understand, we currently have: a nerfed radar for EF De, a Mk-2 radar that hasn’t even been tested on EF, and OLS for EF De, which seems to exist, but not quite.
Roughly speaking, the update breaks the game.
Any updates? I still can not believe, they changed it from 90° to 100° just because of ONE source(hensoldt), when there are ton of other sources, saying their is no difference between any of those 3, in terms of FoV.
One source MUST be incorrect.
maybe you can show us the “ton of sources”?
because as of now we have 1 source for the Mk.1…
Requirement:
must be clearly about the Mk.1
must be from something official, like from Hensoldt or INDRA,
also must be an clear result and not an asumption or quess,
also cant be to old since that would pre date the entire Mk.1 radar
as of now:
we will be stuck to the 90° because of Hensoldt for the time beeing, until we have an clear source was found or Hensold themself mentions an higher number.
I am still wait for Reply from:
Hensoldt: (Likely wont answer)
INDRA: (Likely wont answer)
Airbus Defence: 50/50
FOI to the MOD: result: secret
BAAINBw: Result: Secret
maybe we get more news on it from the BW once the radar goes in active service and not just testing…
It’s like the story with BM ‘Oplot’: which magazine do you like better, the one that says 90 degrees or the one that says 100?
British mainers should definitely stop trying to reassure German fans that their Typhoon is as good as any other.
We did not understood each other. I would love to know source for 200° and if it is being also that strict.
I do NOT know which value is correct, but all 3 have same search zone FoV.
Airbus Captor-E brochure — 200° Field-of-Regard
The rest isn’t publicly linked or accessible, but it is credible source www.Airbus.com for example.

Hey, if you dont want to use CAPTOR-E, you are welcome to keep using the CAPTOR-M
The source from Airbus is Useless, because its from when the development of the Mk.1 Started, at the time there was no physical radar
Aka, it pre dates the Mk.1
Yes, I would prefer to see the CAPTOR-M brought up to standard. Because it’s not normal for the Tornado F3 or F4F ICE radar to perform better in-game.
But you’re just laughing at the fact that the Germans chose a different radar and there’s data showing it has a narrower scanning angle.
What’s the point of you being in this discussion?
Da, the Issue is Hensoldt, if they wouldn’t gave the wierd 90°, than we wouldn’t even be here since it would have the same 100° as every other ECRS, but sadly we have these 90°…
Oh, this pedantry! You should just do like everyone else – not share exact specs, lest you end up with a worse vehicle in a computer game.
Silly Germans, they didn’t foresee this outcome. (Joke)
That was the least important thing in the message. I will quote chatGPT here:
“Airbus publicly states 200° permanent field of regard for Captor-E. HENSOLDT (Mk1) uses ±90° FoV wording. Leonardo/BAE (Mk2) emphasise multifunction EW/radar capability but do not publish an FoR value that differs from Mk1. There’s no authoritative public document that assigns Mk1 a strict 180°×180° and Mk2 a strict 200°×180°.”
And say again, I do not know which source or number is wrong.
honestly at this point Gajin should just give us the Mk.0, its stupid that we get the “upgraded” version when its worse in EVERY regard
Actually, just the 90° are diffrent compared to the 100°, but everything else is the same
Hey man, thank you for potentially buffing my British Eurofighter.
bad ragebyte, try harder
