It's not built by us, but by the Swedes. And here is a video, that I uploaded a long time ago about it. It'll give you all sorts of info on this plane.



In addition to the info on the video, PAF SAAB 2000 Erieye aircrafts will feature extra fuel pods, and more ESM / ECM / ECCM equipment.

Thats great, now we have a proper AEW&C System
How does it compare to the Indian Phalcon?

Saab 2000 is a good enough plane?? Couldn't it be jet for mounting the system?

Waiting for answers bot!

Picture showing the Port Side view of the aircraft has been added to the first post.

Quote:
Pakistan's aircraft has five on-board operator stations, versus three on modified EMB-145s and Sweden's two upgraded Saab 340s, a service ceiling of over 30,000ft (9,150m) and a mission endurance approaching 10h. The type also features enhanced engines, new generators, additional cooling for on-board mission equipment and a Saab HES-21 electronic warfare suite comprising laser, radar and missile approach warners and countermeasures dispensers.

The aircraft's fuselage has been strengthened to carry the Erieye radar, while its vertical tail has been extended to compensate for the payload, which provides 150 degrees coverage to each side of its conformal array. The Saab 2000's outer wing has also been strengthened to accommodate EW and signals intelligence sensors, and for the possible carriage of a towed radar decoy.

Saab says the use of new-generation radar transmit/receive modules with 60% higher output have increased the AEW range of the Erieye design, which can also now detect hovering helicopters and track small naval targets to a range of 350km (190nm).

The global fleet of Saab 2000s now totals 58 airframes. Around 20 of these are owned by the Swedish manufacturer's aircraft leasing unit, which says the type has a projected operating life of at least 75,000 flight hours. "We have sufficient aircraft for a lot of different customers," says Andersson, adding: "Given typical utilisation, they are due to operate for the next 35 to 40 years."
Saab scans AEW market for new Erieye buyers

AWACS is Airborne Early Warning & Control System


what does it do?
It allows early detection of air threats (Early Warning part) and vectors friendly aircrafts towards the bogey (a radar contact whose origin is unknown)

why is it important?
Ground based radars have a "limit field of view ". By the time they get to see an enemy aircraft, it is already "too" late for an effective counter.

(i hope this is what u were asking)
(i know this cuz my father is retired figher pilot and yes he has flown f-16s)
(....and no i haven't flown one, only sat in a cockpit of one with the cockpit powered up)

So this bird will stay in the air 24/7? How else is it going to be any good to fulfill its "early warning" role and supercede ground radar installations? To be honest, if my pessimistic suspicions and calculations are correct, Indians have been preparing for some surgical air strikes since a while now and these days are extremely important to stay vigilant since their mercenaries are nearing defeat in S.Waziristan and the tide will turn after that or should I say the blocked toilet will start to work again after that albeit not at its full capacity until we eradicate them from elsewhere too but these days are crucial as we cut off their supply route from Jalalabad by taking S. Waziristan. Makes sense?

Anyway, I'd keep one of these birds in the air 24/7 until we're done with S Waziristan atleast.
