Isnt this tech 20 years old at this point?



The Captor-E AESA variant is not yet in service with the main countries developing it, despite the project starting in 1993.

In fact, only export customers (Kuwait and Qatar) have the Captor-E ECRS Mk0 on their Typhoons so far, Germany and the UK (in particular) are holding out for future improvements, and are scheduled to get later versions, so they still have the mech-scanned PESA version as far as I've heard.


I think according to Wikipedia only 10 years old. That's for the latest variant, not sure what was posted


That is not old by military standards
