Traditionally IR detectors have very narrow instantaneous fields of view to achieve good enough signal to target ratio. Large detector arrays are therefore required to provide 360° azimuth coverage which is another cost driver. Requires cooled detectors which complicates life cycle logistic support and result in high cost of ownership.
