UTTAM Aesa Radar to have 900 TR Modules
Will have again … in 202X more likely 203x and only after more than 40 have been built
And it’s a Gallium Nitride AESA RadarYes it will be available in 2028
But the Good thing is that the Same Radar will go in MK 2 from the first plane itself
Earlier it was 784 TR modules while MK 2 was planned to have 900 plus modules
And it’s a Gallium Nitride AESA Radar
The remarkable aspect of the Tejas is its capability to launch both Brahmos and Meteor missiles. Rafale can deploy Meteor missiles but not Brahmos. Su-30MKI can launch Brahmos missiles but not Meteor. Both Meteor and Brahmos are state-of-the-art weapons within the Indian Air Force arsenal. equipped with the UTTAM AESA radar, Tejas is well-positioned to fully utilize these advanced weapons.According to Alpha Defence Youtube Video ,It has 968 TR modules

India should install the UTTAM AESA radar in the next 114 Rafales to be imported from France under the MRFAFirst we will need to complete Brahmos NG which will be a 1.5 Ton Missile
France will agree to Meteor integration only after additional Rafale orders
Better go for ASTRA MK 3
India should install the UTTAM AESA radar in the next 114 Rafales to be imported from France under the MRFA
Rafales have Gallium Arsenide Aesa Radar, UTTAM is a Gallium Nitride Aesa Radar, Su30MKI is also getting the UTTAM Aesa RadarYou want to Do JUGAAD with the very expensive Rafales
Radar works together with EW equipment like SPECTRA
You cannot tinker with The Most important part of the plane
At the most we can install our own weapons like Astra and Long Range Glide Bombs and SAAW Bombs and may be even Rudram missile because SCALP is Expensive
Rafales have Gallium Arsenide Aesa Radar, UTTAM is a Gallium Nitride Aesa Radar, Su30MKI is also getting the UTTAM Aesa Radar
France will take 10-15 years to come with rafale equipped with Gallium Nitride AESA Radar, Redesigning Rafales with Indian avionics is a better option including an Indian mission computer and UTTAM AESA radar, could significantly streamline the integration of weapons. Additionally, it would facilitate seamless data transfer between Rafales, Tejas, and Su-30MKI. And after 10 years the existing 36 rafales can be upgraded with same systems just like Su30MKI is being upgraded with Indian avionics most important of which is the UTTAM AESA RadarWe will buy F 4 version
With upgrades
Redesigning Rafale is easier !!France will take 10-15 years to come with rafale equipped with Gallium Nitride AESA Radar, Redesigning Rafales with Indian avionics is a better option including an Indian mission computer and UTTAM AESA radar, could significantly streamline the integration of weapons. Additionally, it would facilitate seamless data transfer between Rafales, Tejas, and Su-30MKI. And after 10 years the existing 36 rafales can be upgraded with same systems just like Su30MKI is being upgraded with Indian avionics most important of which is the UTTAM AESA Radar
India could equip the first few Rafales with Gallium Nitride Uttam AESA Radar if DRDO can make Gallium Nitride UTTAM AESA Radar for the Su-30MKI then why not Rafales, Rafale is a powerful fighter jet, with good combat range, payload capacity, low radar cross-section, and is capable of carrying nuclear weapons capability. But to make it India specific it must be upgraded with Indian avionics Similar to how the Super Su-30MKI, a Russian fighter jet, is being upgraded with Indian avionics.Redesigning Rafale is easier !!
