Heard that the chineese avionics are best and even better then the latest variant of f-16 forgot about LCA avionics

I think you can answer this question alone, if the Chinese avionics would be even better than the US versions, why would PAF try anything to get western avionics from France, Italy, or UK for JF 17, instead of Chinese?

Regarding avionics, it should be clear that Israel is possibly the best choice in this field and with the Mayavi EWS, developed by Elbit, the Rafael litening pod and the Elta 2032 radar, the LCA should have an advantage, over the Chinese in JF 17 block 1.

There is not much info. about mayawi in public domain.. but during AI-09 there was talk about RWR being developed by DARE, code name R-118(RWR 1-18GHz freq -65dBM signal + MSWS(MAWS+LWS)
), may be tested on future LSPs of LCA(LSP5 for CMDS testing).

ultimately LCA will have an internal jammer in the form of RWJ – at least in Mk2 versions

But DARE is moving onto to a new integrated system in which they are bringing the RWR and SPJ together. The system is called RWJ – Radar Warner Jammer (Codename not revealed)

Just go through above 2 links :esp the posts from rakal and k prasad.
u will know how far we already reached in EWS,u came to know all those jazzy names :MAWS,RWR,LWS,DIRCM,DRFM,etc, is being flight tested by 2009 and probably developed as a suit by now.And its definitely not the joke that russia want indian EWS for Su-30 to export to malaysia

PS:eagerly waiting for AI-11

One member posted good infos and sources about Mayavi in this thread, which states that it is a Israeli - Indo co-development, but obviously with the higher content on their side. It will have some Indian parts for sure, but we mainly will benefit from their experience and knowledge.
