Bad news for India, US, Japan as China deploys flying radar KJ-3000, leaves US F22 and F35 in…

The KJ-3000 conducts electronic warfare and provides situational awareness for any large Chinese military force.

Beijing: After the first flight of its two sixth-generation fighter jets, China has successfully flown its new KJ-3000 Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft for the first time. According to the reports, Beijing recently operated a flight. However, the exact date of the operation is still unknown. Some photos of the KJ-3000’s flight were published on social media at the end of December. Military analysts have described it as another surprise from China.

China has not officially confirmed the flight of the KJ-3000, but this development has excited military experts. The KJ-3000 is based on the People’s Liberation Army Air Force’s Y-20 transport aircraft and is the latest addition to China’s arsenal of early warning planes.

Features of KJ-3000

The KJ-3000 is an electronic surveillance aircraft designed to gather critical intelligence
The KJ-3000 conducts electronic warfare and provides situational awareness for any large Chinese military force.
No other air force in the world uses such a combination.
China has shared very little information about the KJ-3000 so far. Based on blurry images of the aircraft, it can be speculated that it has a large rotodome and its tail is raised.
Rotodome is a disc-shaped rotating radome that provides 360-degree coverage, allowing for target detection and tracking.
Some experts speculate that the bulge at the tail of the aircraft may be related to the integration of advanced communication systems.
The aircraft is equipped with domestically produced WS-20 high-bypass turbofan engines, which are estimated to generate a thrust of around 31,000 pounds.

America and Japan will face increased difficulties

This massive aerial machine could dominate the skies over the Taiwan Strait. It will also keep a close eye on American, Japanese, or other allied forces attempting to complicate China’s potential attack on Taiwan. While the US and several other modern armies have such aircraft, none are as large as the KJ-3000.
