A nice size comparison of KJ-2000 and KJ-500.

A little off...
I wonder when UAVs will takeover AWACS role entirely. With future heavy UAVs with long range and endurance, powerful enough engines to support powerful equipment, fast secured data links, should eliminate need for any onboard personnel for data processing.

One of the notable differences which we can confirm is that the naval KJ-500H has MAWS on the aircraft front and back while the air force KJ-500 do not have any MAWS.

Otherwise, we don't really know.
