Nobody has any idea about the range, good.

The range depend what u are searching for , I would say 300 - 1000km
If they want to find a f22 steath aircraft than whats the radar range ?

 

[Zafer]

1000km instrumental range

Seems like an acceptable range being 4 digit. Three or four of them can give a good coverage.

It has detected a target with 31dBsqm RCS at 790km (PD 98)

You can do the calculations for how it fare be against different targets

Could you please give a source? I am a bit confused, is that a fixed version of ERALP or a new radar?

I mean, which flying object has an RCS above 1000m²?

I mean, which flying object has an RCS above 1000m²?

It must be the ISS(1.39M feet altitude, so above 400km).

 

[Samba]

It must be the ISS(1.93M feet altitude, so above 400km).

The image indicates altitude as 426 km. It is 730km far from the radar.

true. I wrote 1.93M ft instead of 1.39M ft. Fixed it now.

 

[Zafer]

So it can detect spaceships, nice.

ISS, 750km horizontal 450km vertical distance

 

[fushkee]

And RCS 31dbm2. What does it mean?

 

[Radonsider]

And RCS 31dbm2. What does it mean?

Wave-signal energy per meters squared.

30 dBm² equals around "1000m²" when you convert it

I can't understand that how forward looking stationary antenna could map ground ?

Because it's a phased array antenna that steers its beam electronically instead of steering it mechanically.

I understood it. But ground mapping mission wouldn't be too dangerous ? Repositioned antenna could reduce risks.
Repositioned antenna

Euroradar CAPTOR - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

The radar consists of a mechanically controlled antenna

The antenna can be swivelled by ±60° in elevation and azimuth.

the radar can also interleave different radar modes, which would only otherwise be possible with phased array antennas, albeit much faster. For example, air-to-air and air-to-ground modes can be combined in one scan pass.

Just mechanical touch, it is not a rocket science might our nose radar miss air-to-ground capabilities?

At least Armed Hürjet, KE, Akıncı, Anka 3 should have such repositioned antenna.

F-35 APG-81 SAR imaging for air-to-ground attack, having multiple arrays or a repositionable one isn't a significant advantage for this use-case:

Here ground target was in front of F-35 so the radar could worked simultaneously in two mode.
F-35 is stealthy ( low observation from enemyradars) so it has different engagement procedures and maneuvers. There is no dogfight.


EF radar locks at wide angle , could send A2A missiles from wide angle. More advantages in dogfight. İmagine F16 with stationary AESA versus EF with repositioned AESA antenna? İ would prefer EF .



I don't think F-35 could make these maneuvers .

Anyway why KE, AKINCI , Hürjet should have A2A mission radar? They should have focus on ground capabilities.
