Foreign media: The Chinese Air Force research team announced a breakthrough in radar technology, successfully developing a new method that makes airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) platforms almost undetectable by enemy electronic reconnaissance.
Although early warning aircraft are the core of battlefield command, their powerful radar signals can often be detected hundreds of kilometers away, making them prime targets for attack. The core of this innovation is "Frequency Diverse Array" (FDA) radar technology: by assigning each antenna a slightly different frequency, it's like hundreds of singers singing the same song with slightly different pitches, creating confusion and disorder in long-range signals, making it difficult for the enemy to determine the location. If the enemy tries to intercept, they will only receive signals that drift, scatter, and change shape like a "ghost opera."
Experts say this is a "paradigm shift" that is completely different from traditional phased array radar, significantly enhancing the survivability and operational stealth of Chinese early warning aircraft.
