A team of engineers from IAI’s ELTA Systems visited India’s Palam Air Base recently, where three Phalcon airborne early-warning systems are stationed, according to a report by idrw.org.

It is not yet clear if the team was invited by India for some regular maintenance of the Phalcon radar and sensor system which are mounted on the aircraft, or whether the visit is somehow connected to the latest clash between India and Pakistan. Last month, the Indian Air Force has given out first AWACS pictures of the aerial dogfight between its fighter jets and Pakistani F-16s, the report adds.

Sorry but they were sketches with flaws. You could see they were made by an amateur.

 

[Path-Finder]

This superior system was feeling a little lonely so its manufacturers paid a visit. no biggy

 

[RIP Pak LAW]

Lol probably to figure out how it's various systems were jammer or made ineffective by Paf

Or they arrived to train IAF in how to use it properly.

 

[Crystal-Clear]

probably to inspect how it failed on 27th feb .

To get their serviceability issues sorted out so they are of actual use to India and not sitting on the Tarmac waiting for one fault or the other to be sorted out.

The Phalcon availability is 100%.

The Phalcon availability is 100%.

No system can have a 100% availability.

Very tall claim there, considering your IAF was so ineffective and left embarrassed on Feb 27, 2019.

Our Phalcons do. Enough spares and engines to keep it available even when it's supposedly down for maintenance. Since we have only 3, it's entirely manageable.

it may be using stark's technology.

Indian math. They are 100% sure of everything. =)

When you have to use spares or do any maintenance your system is not available.

Anyway your claim is: IAF has a Russian IL76 based platform with 100% availability ... enough said.

 

[Pakistan Space Agency]

The Phalcon availability is 100%.

It didn't appear so on Wednesday 27th February 2019.
