Man they must have done a lot of testing in labs for this RADAR . without prior testings and certification they cannot mount it directly on a planes. all sub systems are tested but real field trial will be on a plane to see whats its actual performance is .

Here you go:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embraer_R-99

Only difference is the LRDE Radar, the R-99s in use with Greek, Brazilian and Mexican AF use the SAAB Erieye radar, and ours has 5 additional seats.

Embraer unveils new EMB-145 AEW&C platform for India

Embraer presented the first of three EMB-145 Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) platforms on Feb 21 to representatives of the Indian government at a ceremony held at its headquarters in São José dos Campos, Brazil. Based on the proven Embraer ERJ 145 regional jet, the aircraft features an in-flight refueling system, SATCOM capability, a significant increase in electrical and cooling capacities, and a comprehensive set of aerodynamic and structural changes. These improvements will allow the installation of the advanced electronic systems currently being developed by DRDO under CABS' coordination.

Embraer deepens ties with India defence market

Embraer ceremonially unveiled the first of three new airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) test aircraft ordered by the Indian government as the Brazilian manufacturer continues to deepen ties with New Dehli.

Separately, Embraer also confirms that a deal is being finalised with the Indian government to acquire nine more intelligence-gathering and target-towing platforms based on the ERJ-145.

The ceremony featured a mock-up of a new phased-array radar currently being developed by India's Centre for Airborne Surveillance (CABS), which will be integrated after Embraer completes flight tests before the end of this year.

Indian air force expects to have all three ERJ-145 AEW&C platforms with the indigenous radar system enter service in 2014.

Indian officials acknowledged during the ceremony that the pressure is on to deliver the new capability on schedule.

"We have a long way to go," says CABS director Sargunaraj Christopher. "Internationally, everybody is looking to us and we must reach the goal on time."

The ERJ-145 AEW&C represents the second of a three-phase strategy for India's airborne surveillance ambitions. Phase 1 involved development and testing of a rotodome antenna aboard two HS 728 prototypes, which both crashed.

In phase 2, CABS is developing a top-hat radar for the ERJ-145 with two side-panel arrays that can each scan between 130-150º, Christopher says.

In the third phase, the CABS will develop a triangle-shaped, phased array capable of searching 360º nearly simultaneously, says Vijay Kumar Saraswat, director of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).

That system will match the capabilities that India has already acquired with a 360º-scanning Elta Systems phased-array.

The delivery ceremony also marks a positive new step in the growing relationship between Embraer and the Indian government, Saraswat says.

Indeed, Acir Padilha, vice president of marketing and sales for Embraer's defence unit, confirms the company is finalising a deal for a new aircraft designated the MA-1, which will install signals and electronic intelligence payloads on seven ERJ-145s and target-towing equipment on two others.

Saraswat also noted that the DRDO and Embraer "is going to join hands" as his organisation pursues a broad range of new aerospace projects, which include a 90-100-seat regional airliner and medium combat aircraft that aims to introduce an indigenous fifth generation fighter by around 2020.

"Dialogue [with Embraer on these projects] is ongoing," Saraswat said.

Embraer rolls out first EMB 145 AEW&C for India

Embraer presented the first of three EMB 145 Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) platforms, today, to representatives of the Indian government at a ceremony held at its headquarters in São José dos Campos, Brazil.Based on the proven Embraer ERJ 145 regional jet, the aircraft features an in-flight refueling system, SATCOM capability, a significant increase in electrical and cooling capacities, and a comprehensive set of aerodynamic and structural changes.

These improvements will allow the installation of the advanced electronic systems currently being developed by India's Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) under CABS (Centre for Airborne Systems) coordination.

Following its official presentation, the aircraft will start intensive ground and flight tests. The ferry flight to India is scheduled for the second semester of this year, where it will receive the equipment being developed by the DRDO.

"The smooth progress of such a complex program is strongly based on the good will and the high level of professionalism that both the Indian and Brazilian teams have demonstrated over the last two-and-a-half years. Given Embraer's experience in the field of ISR aircraft and equipment, we believe that this jointly developed product will offer outstanding operational capability, and we look forward to its entry into service," said Eduardo Bonini, Senior Vice President Operations & COO – Embraer Defense and Security.

Today, four Embraer Legacy 600 jets are operated by the Indian Air Force (IAF) for the transportation of Indian VIPs and foreign dignitaries, and a fifth Embraer Legacy 600 is in service with the Border Security Force (BSF), under India's Home Ministry.
