PA-32 Multirole Fighter

Development

Origins

Following the North Amerigan invasion of Dalpo, the need for an advanced fighter to counter so-called "fifth-generation" aircraft became apparent. The Dalpoan military approached the Prizyetsi Sverd Industries group and set forth requirements for an advanced fourth generation fighter aircraft capable of meeting the needs of the country.

Sensors

The PA-32 is equiped with the export version of the brand new AEPA-35 (Radar) (Active Electronic Phased Array - mod. 35) radar, the "E" version. The AEPA-35E offers a wide range of frequencies to operate on, making it more resistant to jamming and other electric countermeasures (ECM). The system offers a far detection range, 150km for aerial targets and around 300km for surface targets, and has the capacity to track up to 30 targets simultaneously and target 6 targets. In addition, the radar is able to move +/- 70 degrees in elevation and azimuth. The radar system weighs 325kg.
