PLA AEW&C, SIGINT, EW and MPA thread

[defenceman]

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.

Hi Blitzo thanks for your information, by the way any reason why one doesn’t have MAWS and the other one does if possible to share something about it
thank you

what P8 doing in Taiwan straits ?

KJ500 flying between Cuba and US mainland would sound off alarm bells in Washington
