Saw this on SB, does anyone have higher resolution pics? and in the first photo what does it say in the little table on the right?

Blue apple

Yeah totally. Straight through

I. Stop being so insecure every time someone mentions straight and intake in the same sentence.
II. On the ground, PAK-FA body pointing down because the front landing gear is shorter.

a bird strike that would make the airplane definitely out of service because “stealth coating was damaged” sounds strange to the least

According to the very source that they linked, the F-35 came back to service in the upcoming day.

The IDF Spokesperson’s Office stated: “These allegations are incorrect. In preparation for a routine landing of the F-35, two injuries were found in the fuselage following a collision with the birds. The plane made a normal landing at the base and was sent to the usual maintenance treatment following such injuries. The plane will be used and will return for flight in the coming days. “

The number of beam positions equation basically states the area of the search sector divided by the cross sectional area of the beamwidth.

To summary, the number of beam positions equivalent to the area of search sector (in degrees) /area of beamwidth (in degrees). Correct?. It’s like filling a rectangle with small squares.
So if the radar can’t scan vertically, wouldn’t it make sense to only consider the horizontal length?. Vertical length is irrelevant because radar can’t scan up and down.

You don’t divide scan area with beamwidth

But why not? what is the difference?. I still find it weird that you got 250 seconds.

The assumption is Very Long dwell strategy of 0.3 seconds per beam positions making total scan time of 250 seconds

How wide is the beamwidth?. That sounds like either the beam very narrow or the search sector is very wide.

@stealthflanker:
I mean there are too variables so i don’t know what to choose to calculate range. For example: I want to estimate air to air range of radars like APG-77 and APG-81. But i have no idea what to put in Doppler filter per band or system loss budget. Even pulse width is hard for me to decide, especially with technology like pulse compression. Basically what said by totoro.

Since all the load on the internal suspension, the flight range is affected only by weight changes.

This is wrong, flight range affected by cruising altitude and combat time more than weight change.
