The radar figures are taken from here. but we dont know what year that figures are published.
regardless of specifications Su-30SM aka MKI is hugely successful export. total export figures may approach 450.

This long interview but the basic theme is that Rostec (radar, avionics, communication) is going to develop Lithiography equipment and overall developing latest semiconductor equipment (means of production), 6G and microprocessors. total spending is $11B.
this confirm my earlier theme that centralization/integration and low cost of development in Russia.
Than 20 kW radar against blue sky?
Sounds very plausible.
If we judge radar performance by pure wattage then doesn't Mig-25's radar win any competition by default? After all, rumor has it that it could cook rabbits from several kilometers away.
Comparing the uncomparable.
And for phased arrays, it's a perfectly comparable metric, especially since N035 is a reasonably well-understood system.
You are comparing passive and active phase arrays here.
Yeah, and that's the point.
Precisely because we're talking about passive and active radar arrays this particular quote sounds like a turbopatriotic nonsense. Like there is tons of things where PESA can be bullied, but not this particular metric.
For example, I can imagine such relationship being possible against directed jamming. But in normal detection range - see above.
