MaxRange, Air: 240
MaxRange, Surface: 266
Arc: 210

Adds electronic attack locating and jams MFC. SAR images can be sent over data links

I would suggest renaming the other sensor in that family, for clarity's sake:

ID 225 CAPTOR: Captor-M
ID 1349 CAPTOR-E AESA [CAESAR]: Captor-E ECRS Mk0
ID 6402 CAPTOR E-Scan Mk1: Captor-E ECRS Mk1
