Hanwha ready to ship first AESA radar for KF-X
South Korea is reported to have completed the first AESA radar to be tested on the KF-X fighter. The radar will be delivered to the customer next month.
Press reports from the country says the radar was tested in Israel and earned praise from the Israelis for its performance. It has been reported that Elta was the company assisting the South Koreans.
Seoul was forced to develop its own AESA radar for the KF-X after Lockheed Martin was blocked by the U.S. to export the technology to South Korea as part of the agreement to sell F-35s to Seoul.
