Began testing the PAK FA with a new radar

"Dry" has started testing the fighter T-50 (PAK FA) with a new on-board radar system with an active phased array, said in a statement received by the Editor "Lenty.ru." The new radar is installed on the third prototype of the future fighter T-50-3. In the first ground and flight tests were checked in the modes of the radar features "air-to-air" and "air-surface". In parallel testing of optical channels.
Radar PAK FA being developed by the Research Institute of Instrument name Tikhomirov. According to the "Dry", a radar with electronic beam control is made on the basis of the Russian element nanoheterostructures. The system will allow the PAK FA to recognize and classify the group and single target at long range, and at the same time pointing to arms for a few of them. In addition, on-board system will provide communications and electronic countermeasures.

In February 2012 it was reported that the PAK FA prototype made ​​a total of more than 120 flights. The third prototype of the aircraft involved in the flight test program in November 2011. It is expected that during 2012 the program will connect, and the fourth prototype of the T-50-4. The first prototype aircraft flies from January 2010 and the second - in March 2011.

Under the current schedule, during the current year is planned to complete testing of the aircraft airframe perspective, and in 2013 to pass a few T-50 troop trials. Serial supplies PAK-FA to the troops is scheduled to begin in 2015. Currently, the Russian Defense Ministry plans to purchase 60 new fighter jets, but in the long term, according to unconfirmed reports, the volume of purchases may be increased up to 120-150 units of the PAK FA.

This will shut the mouths of few idiots who said after 2015 means 2016..2020 or 2025 :tongue:
 
At this rate, it seems we will see PAK FA/FG FA flying in the Indian sky before Rafale :)

come home as early as possible
 
No, first Rafales will arrive in India in ~2015.


@topic- RuAF only going for ~150 PAK-FA? IAF will be the second biggest 5th gen fighter operators in the world then!

nope..you forgot China..they will field their 5th gen in 2019 and as we know,they will mass produce it..so,it is highly unlikely India will be 2nd.3rd/4th may be..
 
First order of RuAF is 60 only. So it will be completed in 2 years ( I am counting on 35 AC per year from Russian production lines )
So IAF will have 30/50 AC in 2018 :D
Goooood news :D

That says it... ;)

India will be second largest operator of 5th Gen. planes...
 
Lets clear few things.
1st Russian air-force will purchase 200 PAKFA & 50 FGFA.
2nd Indian air-force weill purchase 50 PAKFA & 200 FGFA.
3rd thing PAKFA production will start in 2015 & both countries will receive it simultaneously,50 India 50 Russia in same time timing. So India will induct PAKFA(not Indian version FGFA) in 2015 which will coincide with rafale induction.
4th FGFA will be inducted by India & Russia in 2017 simultaneously,it mean dual seat version will be available only after 2 years. Nobody has ever said that India will behind Russia in inducting it. only fgfa will come after 2 years of pakfa. Everyone tends to make perception that India will receive its 5 gen jet 2 years after Russia but situation is bit different it's about version difference time frame.
