Yes, range performance for the ME has improved. TWS figures are reasonable.
I concur about the MFE, its dead, so is the MSF, and the MSE..Phazatron will directly try to sell the MAE derivatives.

yeah, ME pretty much achieved comparable performance to PESA radar. And realistically, I don't think you really need to be able to engage more than 4 targets concurrently anyways.

From what I understood. Phazatron is way AHEAD. It has a working design already. IT IS TESTED on aircraft.
NIIP is laggin behind. They have something they call an active antena but put many reservations on that.... they are following Phazatron and even make some of the chips of the Phazatron's antena.
Leninets is just hoplessly behind the race...
From what I understand - Phazatron has designed something, but NIIP has build a line producing small volumes of galium chips needed antena. They need much more of these chips to complete tests... In general Russia is just couple of years behind having a tested antena

That's what I thought too, which could be why NIIP kept on saying that it's PESA radar is as good as many AESA radar.
