Not 100% true in regards to new market Gen 3 always better than Photonis XD-4/XR-5/INTENS. There's a significant portion of Gen 3 made by Russians (Kato'd and Dipol), these have spec ranges which are inferior to Photonis. When it comes to American Gen 3, what Az said above is likely to be the case.
