Are there more details available about the radar, how many T/R modules it will have for example?

That is not a Chinese AESA radar pic, its an AN/APG-79 AESA radar pic.
Pakistan is getting the J-10B, is it going to have AESA?J 10B WITH AESA RADAR

Thanks, then any new news about the radar on J10B?
You know about Chinese stuff, info like these is hard to come by, especially since its in the development & testing stage.
All for now we know is, NRIET made AESA is being tested on some J-10 model, rest we will know in a few years time after the product has gone through its development stage.
well taking you point, PAF will certainly like to add a mature AESA on J-10B (highly likely Vixen-500/1000 as PAF will have more trust in Selex Galilio's products since its been a long time customer of these).Well, NRIET AESA.......I dont think so PAF would risk its front liner to be dependent upon a relatively new development rather than a product from trusted supplier.
I understand your point, but don't you think the argument made by hasnain009 still stands? Ideally, PAF would not want to use relatively new fighter-borne AESA tech on the JF-17. There are already many untested systems on-board the JF-17, you don't want one of your most important systems to be brand new as well.Buddy, Chinese AESA systems are already in operational use, their KJ-2000 AESA based AWACS platform is in use since 2003, while the KJ-200 platform is also in use since 2005-06, and China has been playing with AESA since late 90s, thus its already more then a decade since the Chinese are playing around with AESA. Their HQ-9 series SAM system have AESA based radars, their Type-052C destroyer has AESA radar for the naval version HQ-9 missiles.

If all else fails, a Chinese AESA will remain the only option (and I doubt any European AESA radars will be secured). However, we're discussing the ideal here, not reality.
