PLAAF 30th Independent (ECM) Regiment

Y-8 serial number 21101 "High New 7", entered service with PLAAF 30th Independent (ECM) Regiment recently indicating the regiment is enhancing its profiles to include other EW related missions. High Noon 7 is designed jam enemy’s communication in both military and civilian spectrum in time of war.

The 30th ECM Regiment was founded in 1957 with local modified H-5 bombers in ECM roles and cited as "1st class military unit" after 50 years of safe flying (Here). It is based near Shanghai and in service around the Yellow Sea area.

I was confused about those odd body "transport" planes.

9301 and 9351 are members of PLANAF 2nd (Specialized) Division, not PLAAF.

079 is a radar test bed under "civilian control"

AWAC T0518 is for exported

I see. But,what's the function and purpose of the two PLAN planes? ASUW or ASW?

9301 is a maritime patrol (with a British Skymaster radar) a poor man's AWAC if you will.

9341 is ASW.
