If you want to build a modern fighter radar, then AESA is the only way to go.

There's only 3 companies in the world with the expertise to do an AESA radar.
2 of them are in the USA, and only one of them has AESA in production.


I'm pretty sure the Russians and the French would disagree with you.

For Canada to come up to speed with a purely domestic system
would take a minimum of 10 years.

Could you offer some justification for this estimate? I'd be interested in any
reasoning you might offer.
