Are u sure that gan ll be used ... So far not even F22 uses that . Only Grippen recently made a test flight . GaN is expected to have larger output power compared to GaAs . Theoretically 10-50 times . We shd nt even be discussing number of trm if thats true .
GaN is planned to be cleared for IOC by 2027-28 and has been decided for AMCA. F-22 is old machine. Might be upgraded with GaN once that is operational. Didn't get what u meant by output power for radar.

Gan uses less power as much i have read , and on same power consumption provide almost double the range

Gan provides more power density . So better range . So simple trm count cant be taken as efficacy measure of radar if we are getting Gan .

Questions:

1> Why was 3B-01 not chosen?
2> AMCA model from AI-2021 is which model from above?
1. That was super crude. See the image again, there's written what refinement have been done in each version.

2. None. It's the 11-12th iteration by my count (don't know the official designation).
