As frequent readers have noticed, the volume of articles being published in recent months has declined substantially. I have been in the process of applying for graduate schools and studying for the GRE exam. Thankfully, I will be able to resume posting articles as normal in about a week. The next article will be on the state of China's fighter radar technology.
Once the Chinese fighter radar article has been published, I plan to begin work on an article which will list defense related proposals for Taiwan as well as Part II of the J-31 article. In the mean time, the articles below are worth reading. Feel free to let me know if you have any comments or suggestions and thank you for your patience.
During
the research process on the J-31’s avionics, it became apparent that very few
credible, verifiable, and non-speculative English based source materials
existed on the subject of PLA fighter radars. Basic information, such the
proper name or designation of a radar system is utilized by a particular
fighter often varies between sources; performance figures associated with
domestically produced radars is even harder to verify. This upcoming article's intent was to
compile a wide variety of information on currently used PLA fighter radars in
conjunction with expected future developments in Chinese actively scanned
electronic array (AESA) radars. Furthermore, the current “Threat Analysis of
Foreign Stealth Fighters: Part I Chengdu J-20” is largely dated with respect to
developments with the J-20’s avionics suite and this article subsequently
provides more up-to-date information on the J-20’s AESA.
Once the Chinese fighter radar article has been published, I plan to begin work on an article which will list defense related proposals for Taiwan as well as Part II of the J-31 article. In the mean time, the articles below are worth reading. Feel free to let me know if you have any comments or suggestions and thank you for your patience.
