Hensoldt, the developer of the Radar says FoV +/-90°, so no, Hensoldts own Words are blocking that Idea of it beeing more than 90°
Come on dude, added 10 degrees for the radar is not even in the same league of buffs as what AMK would provide in the current meta.
Incorrect. You should understand the difference between FoR and FoV. Sichtfeld (German for FoV) means the Radar cone covers +/- 90°. This nothing todo with Field of Regard FoR (Erfassungsbereich in German which is CLEARLY not what they talking about on their website).
The FoR can be much higher like in the Russian Su30sm2 for example because the Radar itself can be mechanically or electronically moved. Captor-E’s mechanical gimbal allows the whole radar array to point far off the aircraft’s centerline far more than what electronic steering alone would allow. This gives it a field of regard of roughly 200 degrees without having to turn the aircraft itself. FoR is the overall region Captor-E can cover by combining that beam movement with mechanical antenna rotation. No data is found which would suggest, the Mk1 is not capable of achieving 200° FoR and Gaijin keeps ignoring that. You all act like its not a big deal but having the option to slightly turn in and out of Notch without losing lock or track is massive for any Fox3. 20° is massive and will make the German EF2000 much worse.

Nope, you are…
Because I just repeated what Hensoldt says to us…
You want to see ragebait?
Visit all those threads with mimimi, German EF trash because of only 90°…
Yet I was one (+ a few others) who tried everything with proving the 100°…
Yet we cant prove it…

Like i think it 100 but no matter what you say or argue that primary source is going to cuck you
Listen. I been following this post for a while. I been looking for information like everyone else yet everything suggest from what you can gather as information, the FoR should not differ between the Mk0, Mk1 and Mk2. Besides the vague information we have about any of those radar, there is nothing that could proof the Mk1 being worse in that regard.
Now what would be the fair solution if you consider game balance and overall fairness? Well what about you just make every EF equal since we are not sure about how accurate this data is anyways. My point, no direct proof make it equal, we have military equipment in the game nobody knows barely anything about might as well balance it logically now and make it fair.
Naa but you right its probably better to have one worse EF so people get mad because they once again decided to grind the wrong nation in terms of balance for the same vehicle…
I think youre barking up the wrong tree there mate. Dontkev has done a lot to try to convince Gaijin that the 90 degrees is only Hensoldt being pedantic.

Were they commenting on the Indra video, which shows that all versions of Captor-E have a coverage of 100 degrees?
Was that the video from 2020? Because they reject every source that predates the first physical ECRS MK1
Hensoldt worked with Indra to develop the mk.1. The video is 6-7 months old
I guess idk I just get mad everytime I wake up and we still have to argue about this. My bad sorry, I just want a balanced game, I would fight of the UK/Italian EF the same way just to make it fair. It would not bother me the slightest bit if it was the other way around and they would make it equal for balance. Especially now having to deal with R27ER which can be guided while notching.

Ah my bad. You mean the part from 1:30 onwards, right? I dont know if they directly answered to that video tbh.
What’s the point if Spain only uses mk.1?
I don’t know it is just what i know they will say

I do wonder why they mentioned Mk.2 tbf, AFAIK Indra has no part in its development at all

Youre probably right but it would be very weird if Indra took specifically the one they had no part in for their marketing video
