KJ-2000 is a Chinese Airborne Early Warning and Control system comprising domestically designed electronics and radars installed on a modified Russian Ilyushin IL-76 airframe
Looks like russian AWACS
 
Thanks to the Americans for making China self sufficient in manufacturing these AWAC's. Now i wonder, what would USA & Israel say, if China wants to export them to Iran.
 
What do you mean by Americans making China Self Sufficient:what:

I meant the pictured posted of a awacs airframe was in terrible condition seemed to be russian A-50.

Chinese wanted the Israeli Phalcon, But USA forbade Israel from doing so and here we have KJ2000, KJ200 & ZDK03.

I wonder what's with US paranoia of China. Are the Chinese threatening the Americans? Are they bullying the Americans for their resources? Their land? Their water? Their food? Their technology? What? :what:
 
EL/M-2075
The IAI EL/M-2075 Phalcon is an Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) radar system developed by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and Elta Electronics Industries of Israel. Its primary objective is to provide intelligence to maintain air superiority and conduct surveillance. The Federation of American Scientists stated the Phalcon was the most advanced AEW&C system in the 1999 and 2008 articles.The system is currently in-service with four countries–Israel, India, Chile and Singapore.
Design and features
The EL/M-2075 is a solid-state L-band conformal array radar system for use on a Boeing 707 and other aircraft. Phalcon, as the complete AEW mission suite is referred to, is intended for airborne early warning, tactical surveillance of airborne and surface targets and intelligence gathering. It also integrates the command and control capabilities needed to employ this information. The system uses six panels of phased-array elements: two on each side of the fuselage, one in an enlarged nosecone and one under the tail. Each array consists of 768 liquid-cooled, solid-state transmitting and receiving elements, each of which is weighted in phase and amplitude. These elements are driven by individual modules and every eight modules are connected to a transmit/receive group. Groups of 16 of these eight module batches are linked back to what is described as a prereceive/transmit unit, and a central six-way control is used to switch the pre-transmit/receive units of the different arrays on a time division basis. As used in its Chilean Boeing 707-based application, the lateral fairings measured approximately 12 × 2 m and were mounted on floating beds to prevent airframe flexing degrading the radar accuracy. Each array scans a given azimuth sector, providing a total coverage of 360°. Scanning is carried out electronically in both azimuth and elevation. Radar modes include high PRF search and full track, track-while-scan, a slow scan detection mode for hovering and low-speed helicopters (using rotor blade returns) and a low PRF ship detection mode.

Instead of using a rotodome, a moving radar found on some AEW&C aircraft, the Phalcon uses the Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA), an active phased array radar. This radar consists of an array transmit/receive (T/R) modules that allow a beam to be electronically steered, making a physically rotating rotodome unnecessary. AESA radars operate on a pseudorandom set of frequencies and also have very short scanning rates, which makes them difficult to detect and jam. Up to 100 targets can be tracked simultaneously to a range of 200 nmi (370 km), while at the same time, over a dozen air-to-air interception or air-to-ground attack can be guided. The radar can be mounted on the an aircraft's fuselage or on the top inside a small dome. Either position gives the radar 360 degree coverage. The phased array radar allows positions of aircraft on operator screens to be updated every 2–4 seconds, rather than every 20–40 seconds as is the case on the rotodome AWACS.
Platforms
The system can be fitted to a number of aircraft, including the Boeing 707, Boeing 767, Boeing 747, Airbus series aircraft, Gulfstream G550 and Ilyushin Il-76. Under a contract signed with Chile in 1989, the first Phalcon system to be installed was fitted to a former LanChile Boeing 707, and was first flown in 1993. In May 1994 the aircraft was delivered to the Chilean Air Force, where it is known as the Condor.

Operational history
Initially the Israeli Air Force installed the Phalcon system on Boeing 707 aircraft, which replaced its E-2Cs which were retired in mid-1990s. In the middle of the first decade of the 21st century the Air Force purchased 5 Gulfstream G550 aircraft to serve as the new IDF platform for its newer generation of AEW systems.The new aircraft is called Eitam and uses a newer variant of the Phalcon system, the EL/W-2085 dual-band sensor suite and is more capable and less expensive to operate than the older 707-based Phalcon.Extensive modifications were made to the Gulfstream's fuselage by IAI, such as the addition of protruding composite radomes, are intended to allow for the housing of the radar arrays housed in conformal body modifications. In 2007, 4 similar G550-Phalcon aircraft were also purchased by the Republic of Singapore Air Force, to eventually replace its upgraded E-2C Hawkeyes. All 4 G550s are expected to be in-service by 2010.

China's purchase of the Phalcon system in 2000 was denied due to pressure from the United States.
Sale to India
In March 2004, Israel and India signed a US$1.1 billion deal according to which IAI would deliver the Indian Air Force three Phalcon AEW&C radar systems. India signed a separate deal with the Ilyushin Corporation of Russia for the supply of three Il-76 A-50 heavy air-lifters, which were to be used as platforms for these radar systems, for an additional US $500 million. In 2008, media reports suggested that India and Israel were about to sign a deal for three additional Phalcon radars.

India received its first AWACS on 25 May 2009. It landed in Jamnagar AFB in Gujarat completing its 8 hour long journey from Israel.
Operators
Israel - Five newer variants with EL/W-2085 dual band radar ("Eitam") in service on Gulfstream G550 platforms. Older variants on Boeing 707 Platforms are also in service.
India - Two in Service & One ordered on an Beriev A-50 platform.[10] IAF is looking to induct a total of six aircraft.
Chile - One in service on a Boeing 707 platform.
Singapore - Four EL/W-2085 systems in service on Gulfstream G550 platform. Each costing approx USD 375 million.
 
What contribution?

Yeah! What Contributions?

I mean not this Phalcon's radar have chinese contribution.
I mean Israeli Phalcon's il76 Platform version that it is a chinese idea and many chinese contributions in it


000a50eberievcoms.jpg


this is a russian A50.not kj2000
A50 havet an AESA radar and A100 will have a AESA radar .
 
Well for Pakistan the best approach is to wait untill Chinese "Transport" planes are ready , and then pick that platform to put a radar on it
but we are covered

8 AWACs plus settelites are enough to keep an eye on enemies of state
