The short "film" is about the AWACS that India developed herself. Can Pakistan boast a similar feat?
(IAF currently has Israeli AEWACS in service that the IAF calls AEWACS, and Indian designed ones that they call AWACS. The film is about the latter; aircraft from Brazil, the rest from DRDO, India. Quite an accomplishment, IMO.)
Pakistan doesn't have AWACS .
Pakistan has SAAB ERIEYE 2000 AEW&C which is pretty similar to DRDO AEW&CS in shape and features.

You must be in hibernation for at least 3-years.

HIGHLIGHTS
IAF's plans to acquire planes from Israel, Russia on hold due to price hike
India had acquired three AWACS systems in 2003 in which the Russian Ilyushin-76 aircraft were equipped with two Israel-made sophisticated radars at the cost of $1.1 billion (over Rs 7,035 crore) to carry out surveillance of enemy aircraft, drones and cruise missiles.

Indian Air Force's (IAF) plans to acquire two new Airborne Early Warning Systems (AWACS) 'eyes in the sky' from Israel and Russia have witnessed a steep hike in price of the surveillance platforms, forcing the government to put the project on hold.

HIGHLIGHTS
- India lagging neighbours in AWACS (airborne warning and control systems) aircraft that can detect incoming fighters, cruise missiles and drones
- Indian Air Force has just 3 AWACS, while China has 20 and Pakistan 8
- India’s indigenous efforts to plug the operational gaps have been dogged by delays

The AESA radar on this system was completely developed in house from the transponder level.
DRDO is really good at radar systems and has made many ground based AESA radars in house. There is nothing new here.
But your butthurt seems to be too high that you can't accept it.
i advise you to try your luck by developing a moped engine without your Chinese masters help and then talk Abt AESA radars.
