Does anyone know what the angular field of view is like?

I would bet something like 45-55 degrees. But the coverage is HUGH simply by fact of the focal length.
Hey E. you beat me to it. So 45 degrees it is

Thirty five degrees, twenty minutes. Tessar type. I was wondering about that.

I wonder if that is what Manarchy has on the front of his 6ft x 4.5ft camera. I'm sure he is using a massive process lens of some sort.

One of those short shipping containers mounted on a utility trailer would be a good start on the camera body. Build in one of those revolving dark room doors for access to the interior and and, . . . "Away we go!"

There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!
Lets see three 8' cement tubes one would need to be shortened and a diameter to fit the camera being used, a long rail rotation device such as a lazy susan
tape & aluminum 8" wide to help seal the tubes and add stability and some type of Cantilever extension
to hold the lens for support and few bucks to it with :

Whats in back of you is the past and whats in front of you is the future now in the middle you have choices to make for yourself:
Purely for comparison and jaw exercise, another 1800mm lens, actually put to use by one Roland Wirtz:
