zoom in, and it does says it's AESA for LCA.



I am guessing about 800 odd fixed T/R s.



Definitely, appearance looks like Elta-ish.. (many a 2052 components and parts might be in).



Pray for its success and subsequent 100% indigenous improvisation for future versions.

Not sure, but looks like a [url="http://www.ausairpower.net/Zhuk-ME-MSA-MAKS2007-1S.jpg"]slotted antenna[/url] to me (and yes the insert does say AESA). I thought one could make out T/R modules on an AESA like [url="http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/systems/images/an-apg-77-image1.jpg"]here[/url] and [url="http://www.ausairpower.net/Zhuk-AE-Display-2S.jpg"]here[/url].



No doubt a quantum leap if these indeed are X-T/R modules.
