Russian Sukhoi aircraft maker has begun of tests of a new Tikhomirov Scientific Research Institute of Instrument Design made x-band AESA onboard radar system for its 5th generation T-50 fighter jet. The radar has been integrated to the third prototype and showed a stable and effective performance comparable with the most advanced existing radar systems.

The Radar uses elements of nanotechnology, has an extended target acquisition range, works simultaneously in “air-to-air” and “air-to-ground” modes, allows attacking multiple targets, and provides electronic countermeasures capabilities.
