Pakistan's Airborne Early Warning and Control Aircrafts

well i thionk we have done good job on Awacs now time is let us know what this chinese AWACS is capable of
 
What is the range of zdk awacs, is it higher of lower than Erieye? I know Erieye's range is ~400-450km.

Also I'm a little confused as to what purpose the P-3 Orion aircraft will be used for, I've seen some sources suggesting that the P-3 that Pakistan received could have the same AWACS system as E-2 Hawkeye, however, I know that in most cases P-3 is used for maritime patrol or anti-submarine warfare. Has there ever been a P-3 based AWACS built for any country?

the US Coast Guard use the P-3H

P3Cs are for maritime patrol, and some aircraft are to be converted with E2000 radar, like two or three of them.

The primary purpose is for PN to hunt for ships and submarines while keeping a watch in the air.


While PAF would use it AWACs to cover Pakistani airspace.

P3Cs can carry weapons.......PAF AWACs can't.


So they serve their respective users well.
 
The range is higher than Erieye but exactly how much, this cannot be exposed as of now.
 
will some one guide me , what are the capabilities of self defense of Pakistan AWACs/AEW&Cs Aircrafts ?
(Some one Fire Missile e.t.c)
 
Chaff and flares, jamming incoming signals, an ever present fighter escort as they are considered as high value assets and lastly the advantage of a SAM coverage since these assets never leave home territory. Pretty sufficient if you ask me
 
I appreciate your research skills bro. Still remember your JFT wingtip rail BVR capability info. Great job!
 
hey nabil i wanna know is the anti jamming capability of Chinese system or Swedish system is great ?
 
AESA has some great options. It can control a beam and is very resistant against jamming. Both Swedisch and Chinese have the AESA. One should look into the software (subroutines) to check how it copes with jamming but if you ask me it is pretty good and probably comparable. Even our F16's can jam fast and effective but do not have the RAM to do that during flight. If a new radar gets active it needs to be reprogrammed at the base. The AWACS can do that when they are online.

I hope we see the increase of the mainwing-size to get that wingtip BVR... We need that for low wingloading in case of Ra'ad or bigger fueltank/CFT.

Ra'ad type missions are specialty missions----there would not be any other weapons load on the aircraft---the aircraft has a specific goal---just to reach its target and deliver the goods----like some of the deep strike missions of the F 16's in iraq----all alone after a certain point---no missiles no ammo in the gun---just the plane and the bomb.

You start putting too much stuff on a small aircraft---you defeat the purpose of its design----.
