The claim still stands because your "links" are basically quoting the overall effective range of the radar ... the range for a standard fighter size have been presented from 3-4 different sources ... and you haven't presented any source countering that claim ... therefore it still stands ...
Counter question ... what makes you think an important system such as the radar of a fighter jet ... which is slated for exports, will have false claims on it marketing material .. In an age where normal day consumers sue the living $hit out of companies whose claims don't meet the performance of their product ...
you would seriously have us assume because of "lack of information" that a company would go out and state inflated figures of its product, and that too of a high involvement product which usually involves state to state negotiations and that the interested party will test before purchasing....
My only concern is, how can N011M with peak power of close to 7kW and aperture dia of almost 1m have a range of just 10kms more than an ordinary slotted planar array(basically waveguides) I.e KLJ7 that has not only lesser aperture dia but also lesser peak power- note you can calculate average power using the duty cycle, hence I'm not counting that in
Secondly I'm not even talking about the inherent ability of a phased array to produce multi beam and simultaneously track a lot more targets than an ordinary slotted planar array.if you're wondering I precisely worked on passive phased array- especially the beam forming and little bit of signal processing.in fact to your surprise our own LRDE's AESA radar has a peak power of close to 3kW and fully digital beam forming
