Am not convinced by this statement,becoz if u have 3 antenna config the area of coverage bit larger even though the side antenna won't do significant improvement in ranges but it helps HMD to cue up radar gudied missiles bit faster and more lock on target time, but it can be suplimented by IRST, hence X1 blk3 speculated to have HMD and IRST 3 antenna config assures relaible missile cueing, also X1 blk3 tendsto be a bvr fighter unlike its older siblings blk1&blk2AESA consists of T/R modules acting as multiple antenna at the same time. This 3 antenna thing is Chinese mumbo jumbo.
BTW M1A has an integrated EW suit as well.
