1) ERIEYE is the first high-performance, long-range Airborne Early Warning & Control (AEW&C) system based on active phased-array pulse-Doppler radar. The radar's long range is 450km and can detect fighter aircraft at a range of 350km in a dense hostile electronic warfare environment, in heavy radar clutter and at low target altitudes.
2) Boeing Wedgetail MESA provides 360° coverage and a range of over 200 nautical miles. The radar has a system track capability of 3,000 targets and can track air and sea targets simultaneously. The system's variable track update rates and dedicated tracking modes allow the operator to track allied and hostile high performance aircraft while continuously scanning the area of operations.
3) The E3 The radar has a range of more than 250 miles (375 km) for low-flying targets and beyond the horizon (approximately 400 miles, although the actual range is classified) for aerospace vehicles flying at medium to high altitudes. The radar can detect and track air and sea targets simultaneously. In a tactical role, the E-3 can detect and track hostile aircraft operating at low altitudes over any terrain, and can identify and control friendly aircraft in the same airspace. In the strategic defence role, the E-3 provides the means to detect, identify, track and intercept airborne threats.
4) Hawkeye 2000 and the previous Group II version automatically detect, identify and track targets at ranges exceeding 300 miles. Hawkeye’s passive detection system clandestinely detects and classifies targets at distances beyond radar limits. The radar is limited to 350km in a dense hostile electronic warfare environment.
5) The Japanese 767 AWACS radar provides a 360-degree view of the area. At operating altitudes it can detect targets more than 320km away. Targets are separated and individually managed and displayed on situational displays.
6) Beriev A-50 Radar "Vega-M" designed by MNIIP, Moscow, produced by NPO Vega-M. "Vega-M" is capable to track up to 50 targets simultaneously within 230 km range. Large targets (ships) are tracked within 400 km range.
7) Y-8 It is not clear whether the “Balance beam” radar has any connection to the ERIEYE, but much of the ESA radar technology is available in the ‘off-the-shelf’ commercial market nowadays. Should it have similar performance to the Swedish radar, it would provide a maximum search range of 300~450km.
8) Phalcon similar to E-3.

please elaborate your thoughts about these systems.. which AWACS do you think would perform better in a dense hostile electronic warfare environment under range of 400 km?
Webmaster can you please open a poll on these AWACS?? i forgot opps..
