Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection

I’m sending the N019 radar, the N001 radar had a longer range, I think for targets of the same size. Its from National Aviation University
Zhitomir Military Institute named after. S.P. Koroleva
Department of Combat Aviation complexes and radio engineering support. Not secret

Of course how convenient isn’t it. Compares, yet doesn’t back it up.

And if I’m not mistakes this is where your figure for the APG-63 is right*?

why do I need a commercial version, I told you if you don’t have the original N001, go to the next branch

The export version(1998) boogeyman strikes again. Perhaps an earlier radar(1990-1985?) and aircraft might offer better performance than a later one. Perhaps if the SK were an much older( more than a decade) plane than the original I would’ve take your claim but come on? By 98’ issues on the 27 radar/avionics should have been fixed, and they are just selling the “older” “last gen” stuff

And you are still not showing them bc its not convenient.

Not because it’s inconvenient, but because it’s classified

And you’re still telling some fairy tales here, chtl APG-63 capture range is the same as target detection
The target capture range will always be lower than the detection range.It’s physics, you can’t fool her.

It very well could be as good as the detection range, due to the use of things like a Kalman filter, since that doesn’t actually rely on RCS directly, but estimating how it moves and things like Three of Five filters to ensure a target return met specific requirements.

We know that the APG-63 uses Track files, so at that point its all digital.

That doesn’t help us now, does it?
Can’t change anything or even prove anything in-game based on classified materials that can’t be shared.
There are, however, unclassified materials available, even if it is just for the export version. So the plane should be modeled to be closest to source that are available for a similar version of the craft. We can postulate and theorize all day, but as long as there is no tangible proof within our reach, we can’t act upon it.

The RLPK-29 is modeled using the information available on the RLPK-29E. Is it a shame? Yes, but sadly, this is the only thing we can use for now.

You do get they they aren’t a mystery right?

I never said is the same, lower. But not a 30 % as N001/N019. To quote, ~10% lower than max detection range.

Simply look at the F14, and its max range shot. Detection at 138NM, if it had 30% loss. Enough energy to generate a trackfile would be available at 96NM. But no, the shot was taken at 110NM as it had a track file already and it was exactly at Rmax(battery life). And the F14 isn’t known to be the a wold wonder in signal processing being a mix of analogue/digital.

Your interpretation is not correct.Since losses usually range from 10 to 30%, even textbooks say that this parameter varies
Even the Su-27SK indicates Rdet=80-100km. Rlock=65-80km
Rlock=0.8-0.9Rdet

We have data for an unknown (early) variant of the AN/AWG-9.

Further we don’t know what atmospheric conditions were like, or the absolute RCS of the Target


Or if the IRST(S) / TCS was involved.

And?

Well yeah, I said that. 10% for thr eagle not 30% loss for that. And for the F14 that firing was inside 0.7-0.9 of the said detection range

Some suffer more than others

The data doesn’t support your suppositions.

Well, why do you claim that the F-15 has this parameter equal to 10%.And not in the range of 10 to 30?

The Kalman filter does not affect the physical characteristics of the radar in any way. Neither the area of the antenna, nor the power of the transmitter, nor the wavelength, nor the sensitivity of the receiver.It doesn’t even affect the efficiency

It doesn’t need to, it operates at a level above the hardware, as long as there are sufficient data points (e.g. a return of sufficient quality to count as a detection) the output can be sufficiently refined to eventually cue weapons (e.g. a Data linked AMRAAM, AIM-9X, etc.) or the radar itself to, before conventional radar tracking is able to be established.
