IAF to enhance transport fleet with advanced Radar Warning Receivers.

The Indian Air Force (IAF) is set to enhance its transport fleet by integrating next-generation Radar Warning Receivers (RWRs) across various aircraft, including the C17 Globemaster III, C130J Super Hercules, and An32 transporters. These systems will enable faster threat detection and real-time analysis of radar emissions, thereby improving pilot response during missions, particularly in regions with significant radar threats. This initiative underscores the IAF’s commitment to modernizing its electronic warfare capabilities in alignment with the Make in India policy, integrating both indigenous and imported technologies. The phased implementation of these upgrades from 2025 to 2028 reflects a strategic move towards enhancing operational survivability and supports a broader focus on sensor fusion and advanced electronic self-protection measures in both combat and non-combat scenarios.
