Oh, yes, yes, yes!

@Scorpion
Check this out mate!

‘Cause I’d swear that they say it does acquire AtoA and AtoG at once,
just as you were wondering if it did!

As in : “can therefore effectively carry out several tasks simultaneously,
with “very low losses…….””

I have many examples of it being stated but they come from French publications and we all know how unreliable those are………..:diablo:

Good day all, Tay.

:):):confused::rolleyes:;):D and LOL, of course!

Yeah, well, I know but we’ll have to wait for a pic of PAK-FA
serial unit with its nose open to know about the new one!

Unless you have that somewhere, TR1?

Tay.

I bet they and the French know what they’re doing. Increasing capabilities to fuse data from several jets might be a reason why radome size isn’t that important anymore.

I think that eagle meant that with L16 or something similar,
two planes or more can exchange/combine tracks, Loke.
As in each radar used as an element of a bigger one.

Of course, successfully merging thirty plus tracks is an AWACS prerogative
on account of the needed computing power AND of course, individual
range of each radar is not augmented.

But proper use of AESAs and datalinks could provide a lot
without the detection being hiked up as much as with one
huge beam of emission.

Now, BlueApple once again stated correctly that element size
and inter-element spacing are fixed but we should still think
of the difference in capacity between different designs of these
and the work on sculpting proper wavebeams. Switching between
AtoA and AtoG is a matter of algorythms and programming mostly
at which not all makers are equally apt!

Good day all, Tay.
