BARS Airborne Radar Control System



The BARS airborne radar control system together with the airborne equipment of the aircraft ensures:
Provision of information on tactical environment in the aircraft front-line hemisphere while tracking-down both ground- and water-based targets;
Simultaneuous firing of several targets (depending on the missile type) in the long-range combat mode;
Missiles firing of a separate target in the short-range combat mode;
Use of weapons of the "air-to-surface" type together with the other aircraft of the system;
Control over the aircraft flight while conducting military operations at air, marine and ground-based targets;
Comprehensive processing of data received from various aircraft systems and other aircraft in order to enhance the efficiency of the aircraft military use;
Informational support for aircraft airborne systems;
Identification of inter-related air targets types;
Evaluation of equipment and weapons condition at all stages of ground-based preparation and during flights.

KEY MODES OF THE AIRBORNE RADARS OPERATIONS:

"AIR-TO-AIR"
Speed search;
Seach with distance gauging;
Search and lock-in in the short-range combat mode;
Tracking down up to 15 targets in order to evaluate the tactical situation and conduct aircraft team operations without search suspension;
Accurate tracking down of up to 4 targets to ensure weapons application without search suspension;
Targets illumination and transmission of orders on radiocorrection while guiding missiles;
Identification of target type by its spectral characteristics;
Identification of multiple target characteristics without visibility distortion.


"AIR-TO-SURFACE"
Terrain mapping in the real beam mode;
Terrain mapping with the Dopler beam narrowing;
Terrain mapping with antenna synthetic aperture;
Selection of ground-based moving targets;
Gauging coordinates down to the ground-based target;
Tracking down of up to 2 ground-based targets.

"AIR-TO-SEA"
Marine search;
Far-out marine search;
Selection of moving marine targets;
Gauging coordinates down to moving or immobile marine targets.

this is exactly the radar china needs. a modern, long range, multi target tracker. and its compatable with the mkks and su-27s and j11s aswell.

if not, its technology can be incorperated in an indegedous radar.

To be honest, N-011M is impressing me less and less. What China needs is Sokol or Irbis when they come out. The problem is that Zhuk-MSE just came out and Bars just became fully functional.

Also, another issue is that Bars has to mechanically steer for some part, because it cannot achieve full electronic steer listed in its specs. If you look at the range, it's no where near as impressive as touted by some of the Indian posters.

Remember, those ranges for air targets are vs 5 m^2 targets.

what china needs is a chinese radar that fires chinese missles.

Sokol is also a planar array. I personally do not know any true AESA variants in Russian pipeline.

Its not really the dvelopment but the cost.

One module cost something like $5,000US and a AESA has about 1,500 of them

i'm talking about zhuk-msfe, it's PAR, so that's at least better than Slotted array radars.
