IAF's requirement for High Power Radar (HPR) which will
"...provide long range, medium and high altitude radar cover with the capability to detect and track high speed targets following parabolic trajectories."

The radar will be capable of resolving in four dimensions(4D) namely Range, Azimuth, Height and Dopper Velocity

IAF new high power radars will also work as early warning detection, as well as act as BMD radar, additional to tracking stealth fighter aircrafts using 4 AESA radars panels. The most important capability of HPR and MPR is it can detect small targets such as cruise missiles at very long range which makes it particularly useful on the eastern & western border. If stationed at strategic locations and fully integrated with IACCS, these radars will make it harder for hostile cruise missiles to get through the defensive net.

●Actually high power availability increases the radar range
●It increases the survivability of radar wave in moist
● It increase the strength of bounce back radar wave from target
●Decreases the false alarm
●Able to differentiate the target from clutters
●Also immune to EW attacks

So, it's RD-33MK engine for our Mig29s....
