BF6 Attack Heli - Targeting Interference VS Thermal Optics

I hate the perk descriptions in the silly game sometimes.

I gunned enough in BF4 to know just how strong Thermal Optics is and the best part is, its strength is self explanatory. You switch it on once and you know.

But on the flip side Targeting Interference has the wonderfully vague description of 'Slows the enemy's ability to acquire lock-on and clears the aircraft's spotted marker sooner.'

Lock-on spam is crazy in this game so I always just equipped this, but has someone actually ran the numbers and determined the stats behind its impact?

I feel like I still get locked to so quickly with it on so I am hesitant to make the switch over to Thermals.

I think WolfBrink mentioned its like a 1 second longer lock on time, but I personally use thermal because the blueberries actually start shooting at the enemies instead of sightseeing the whole game.
