Engineers have built prototypes of terahertz radiation-enabled synthetic-aperture radar and are conducting tests.”

“We mounted a prototype on a drone and recently conducted test flights in Shaanxi province,” Li said. “A typical application of the radar in the future can be drone-based to help with large-scale detection of explosive-carrying terrorists or the placement of improvised explosive devices. This will be much more efficient and safer than deploying a lot of security personnel to do the same work.”

I got another question on the F-35s EW systems. https://breakingdefense.com/2016/07/bae-systems-inches-out-in-public-on-electronic-warfare/ “

“While F-35 is capable of stand-off jamming for other aircraft — providing 10 times the effective radiated power of any legacy fighter — F-35s can also operate in closer proximity to the threat (‘stand-in’) to provide jamming power many multiples that of any legacy fighter.”

I am very sure the AN/ALR-94 is an old system to be labeled as legacy in comparison to the ASQ-239. Lets just say for the sake of argument that both the F-22 and F-35 have had an RCS of .0001m2. But because the radiated power of the F-35 has 10 times the power to further suppress the F-22s radar than the F-22’s EW system does to the F-35s radar would this put the F-35 at a .00001m2 RCS? If you got 10 times the jamming power would this cause a 1/10th reduction in RCS or there is another way to calculate jamming power to RCS reduction?

https://qr.ae/TUKT13 praising Trident, haavarla, Spudman, GarryA, Dr.Snufflebug, Mig-31bm,ActionJackson and Jo Asakura as great references to follow here among others worthy of good mention. And I am also trying to get Quora users I listed there like Eric Johnson,Tom Stagliano Jack Zhang, David Trapp, Yu-Jin Chia, Bob Keeter, Ibteesam Reaz, Abhirup Sengupta, Chris Scheiss, Will Morgan, Jorge Rodriguez, and Cristian A. Rodriguez who definitely deserve to be here if they haven’t created an account here already.

Software can do that, such as changing from deceptive to noise jamming, you can mask a bunch of aircraft, cooling can do that too, because you can increase ON-time
You are solely looking for an excuse to conclude L-265 has GaN while it could be a bazillions others things.

You can keep making excuse but there is no correlation between: ( experimental UHF MMIC/2 ECM pod the same size/ 1 new ECM pod ) and (Su-35/Su-34/Su-57 have GaN MMIC)

one guy says 10 years, you are still pushing the fact that cooling and software offer that much effectiveness instead of new mmics being installed. L-265 is still labeled as a new Khibiny-M feature than the old L-175 which also goes by this name for the Su-35. Unless you think a 2 year timeframe isn’t enough than be more useful than FBW why to some extent it takes 10 years. No one knows if the production went beforehand of the experimentation or how many modules they can produce of these in a months or years timeframe. I am just trying to figure out why there are many users here coming up with as much excuses under the sun as possible.

Announcing 3 new EW systems with the announcement of GaN after 2014 is a little too much of a coincidence. Experiment was a success with the announcement that those modules would be used for those 3 aircraft EW systems which all coincidentally for some reason came after 2014. Whatever you, Garry/mig-31(same person in my opinion) and FBW already tire me out with boredom. I will let you guys be.

I understand what you wrote but I can’t understand your logic because there is no correlation between the evidence you present and your conclusion.
There are many ways to improve the capabilities of a jammer, many of which involve software, cooling so L-175M to the L-265 being the same size doesn’t mean L-265 has GaN. ECM pod don’t change their size a lot, ALQ-184 and ALQ-184v11 are the same sizes, ALQ-131 block I and block are the same sizes.
You are too naive to think manufacturing chain and cost are not a problem and new technologies are always implemented immediately

We got a lot of try hards oh it can be the cooling ohh it must be the software, its its experimental, if there is anything else you want to add just let it all out XD(I was not kidding when I said in denial responses come later did I?). The purpose of jammers are to jam when talking about the ability to suppress you aircrafts location, to acquiring the ability to mask a bunch of aircrafts. I do not think cooling alone or software can do this buddy.

“

and new technologies are always implemented immediately” the developments and experimentations were done but were considered successful in 2014. one system was put around the end of 2014, another 2016 than comes 2018 for the last system. It did take some time for these implementations to be done. Got more excuses for me?

Got a question on the F-35. Is its Next Generation jammers in pods or is it like an EW suite? Where does each block for each jammer go to on the F-35 since I heard each block upgrade is to jam each certain frequency ranges?

Well panzer, considering zero evidence, no official reports, no corroborating evidence (in fact, photos of Khibiny-M directly contradict your assumptions), I would say the onus is on you to provide corroboration. Just because KRET has R&D aimed at developing GaN MMIC for EW systems doesn’t mean they are currently being manufactured, or fielded.

“In 2014, research and development into 4 types of solid, high-dynamic UHF amplifiers (the Odnotsvetnik-21 project) was completed. The units will be used as components of advanced weapons.” And than I list those specific advanced weapons that came after 2014. 2017 the khlibiny-M was shown in the MAKs air show. L-175 is the old version and the new L-265 both go by the name khibiny-M for the SU-35.

”

it would take roughly a decade for technological maturity and volume production to bring costs down based on similar models of western foundries.”

“The Odnotsvetnik-21 project has created a world-class UHF electronics component. The new amplifier will reduce the dimensions and weights of the Khibina-M, Krasnukha-4, Gimalayas, and Tarantul electronic warfare receivers by tenfold, while also improving the noise factor. It will also phase out imported components in a number of communication systems.”

So what your basically telling me is 2024 there has to be a newer tarantul system than the one that came 4 years later after 2014 does not have the GaN mmics? Please state why it takes 10 years? I have done a random custom google search for 2014-2015 and the earliest results I received was feb, 2015 when it was announced the tarantul would be officially put on the su-34(unless you got a earlier source). But this source came out in 2014 while stating what EW systems are to have these MMICs. Than on May 2018 a bomber regiment is using these systems in the Voronezh region. What I am saying is it would be ridiculous to continue to stick GaAS mmics for the tarantul if GaN mmics were introduced for the tarantul you might as well still stick to using the L-175V for the Su-34 than to have your tarantul system have GaN instead of GaAS mmics. Its like what’s the point mass producing su-57s with older engines if you can have them mass produced with the newer engines.

Go ahead and explain why it takes 10 years I would like to see where this goes? I already have my doubts anyways but go ahead. If I recall correctly the F-22 had a 3rd gen radar in 2005 and was later upgraded in 2007 with a 4th gen GaAS radar. Since you know their MMIC industry so well tell me why it takes 10 years instead of lets say 4 years to replace your EW systems MMICs.
