KWIC September 16 Toronto: Next to Russia, Israel has now become the largest stronghold through which China obtains the Western military science and technology. As sources indicated, the Israeli companies of IAI and Elbit are competing with each other for the opportunity of improving the Chinese-made J7 3 fighter planes (originating from the MiG21MF). IAI has helped China refit the first Palcon AEW on the basis of the fuselage of the I176MD. At the latest, this refitted plane is expected to appear at the "October 1" Military parade in Beijing in 1999. In addition, IAI also has the privilege of refitting another three AEWs for China. This shows that in the end, there expects to be a total of four "Phalcon" planes in China.

A New Generation AEW Platform

The long-range, high performance, multi-sensor PHALCON AEW introduces a new level of performance to airborne early warning, tactical surveillance of airborne and surface targets, and the gathering of signal intelligence.


Unique Integration of Sensors



The PHALCON four sensors are: radar, IFF, ESM/ELINTand CSM/COMINT. A unique fusion technique continuously cross-correlates data generated by all sensors; this data is combined with an automatically initiated active search by one sensor for specific targets detected by other sensors.
PHALCON Airframes



A Boeing 767 is a modern airframe that provides the PHALCON with sufficient capacity for equipment and crew. A typical configuration includes up to 11 operator consoles.

The Boeing 767 has excellent endurance, and can remain on station for extended periods. Still another advantage of this aircraft is its high cruise altitutde which gives a long surveillance range of zero-altitude targets.

The PHALCON systems can be installed on other platforms, such as: Boeing 767, Boeing 747, Airbus and C-130.

RADAR

A Radar with conformal phased array antennas for simultaneous coverage and instantaneous focus on selected targets. The PHALCON radar concept replaces the conventional rotodome radar. The radar has several panels of phased radiating elements. They are mounted on the fuselage of the aircraft and can provide full 360° coverage.

Advantages
Radar beams can be pointed in any direction in space at any time, with the beam's parameters fully controlled by the radar computer. The radar employs a flexible time-space energy management technique which makes the most of these capabilities:

Selectable surveillance: Surveillance can be limited to the battle zone and other areas of interest. The scan rate in these selected ground stabilized areas is thus much higher than for search.

Optimized detection and tracking: A special mode for maneuvering and high value targets employs a high scan rate and beam shapes optimized for each target to ensure tracking performance.

Faster tracking and no false alarms: Verification beams sent at specific, individual, newly detected targets eliminate false alarms. Moreover, track initiation is achieved in 2 to 4 seconds as compared to 20 to 40 seconds with a rotodome radar.

Extended detection range: By transmitting extra long dwells in selected sectors, an extended detection range is achieved.

High fault tolerance and redundancy
The system uses distributed, solid state transmitting and receiving elements. Each element is weighted in phase and amplitude.

Electronic Intelligence

The PHALCON's advanced ESM/ELINT system is fully integrated with the radar and other sensors, serving as one of the most critical elements of the identification process.

It is designed to operate in the densest signal environments, providing simultaneous coverage in all directions.

The system uses narrow-band super-heterodyne receivers and wide-band instantaneous frequency measurement (IFM) techniques to provide very high accuracy and probability of intercept of airborne and surface emitters.

Very high bearing accuracy for all received signals is achieved through Differential Time of Arrival (DTOA) measurements. The system also collects and analyzes ELINT data.

Communication Intelligence

Tuned in to airborne, ground and shipborne transmissions.
The PHALCON's CSM/COMINT receives in UHF, VHF and HF, rapidly searching for airborne, shipborne or ground communications signals of interest. Selected radio nets can be monitored for signal activity. A DF capability locates targets.

Detected signals can be assigned to monitoring receivers instantaneously. The system makes extensive use of computers to reduce the load on operators.

IFF

Advanced IFF employing solid state phased array technology.
The PHALCON IFF system implements interrogation, decoding, target detection and tracking using the standard modes. Azimuth measurement is carried out by monopulse processing.

The IFF antennas are incorporated in the primary radar array and are coordinated with the array to avoid mutual interference. Similar antenna elements and transmit/receive modules are used for both the radar and the IFF.

Computer System

Loosely-coupled distributed processing system composed of multiple computers connected by three separate databusses.
Each computer consists of several processors,plus a built-in back-up processor.
Back-up computer can take over the tasks of any computer if a problem cannot be resolved by built-in back-up processor.
Each sensor system has its own processing facilities.
Programmable signal processors used in all sensors.
Radar signal processor features processing power of 1,200 MFLOPS.

Operator and Command Posts

Each operator station has two high-resolution, full-color graphic displays with keyboard and control facilities and a communications panel.

A separate section of the cabin can be equipped as an airborne command post, with a rear projection, large-screen display for presentation of the tactical situation to the entire command staff.

Data may also be easily communicated to other users, as the aircraft's communications includes long-distance voice and data linked to other aircraft, naval and ground units, as well as voice and data relay facilities.
