	Mainstay
		Ilyushin/Beriev A-50 "Mainstay" AWACS aircraft - the radar rotodome is 9 m in diameter
		To replace the ageing Tupolev Tu-126 "Moss" (first Russian AEW aircraft), a new AEW/AWACS aircraft, designated the Ilyushin/Beriev A-50 - dubbed "Mainstay" by Nato, was developed and entered service in 1984.
		The A-50 is a very capable AWACS platform and should be used for controlling both ground-, sea- and air forces and for supplying such forces with tactical information to create a higher degree of situational awareness.

	Air Force Technology - A-50 Mainstay - Airborne Early Warning and Control System
		Beriev aircraft normally carry the Russian designation Be- followed by the number, however, the A-50 aircraft retained the well-known A-designation which Beriev allocated to the original prototype.
		The A-50 airborne early warning and control aircraft was developed and manufactured by the Beriev Aircraft Research and Engineering Complex Joint Stock Company based at Taganrog in the Rostov Region of Russia.
		The A-50 aircraft is intended to detect and identify airborne objects, determine their co-ordinates and flight path data and transfer the information to command posts.

	Beriev A-50 Mainstay
		The A-50 was given the NATO reporting name Mainstay and the aircraft entered service in 1984, initially operating from bases in the Baltic, eventually the fleet of between 16 to 25 aircraft were all grouped further north at Perchora.
		In early April 2000 Russia agreed to lease two A-50 Mainstay aircraft to the IAF and during July 2000 these aircraft were used along the border with Pakistan to see exactly how far inside the other country the radar could identify targets.
		In Oct 1999 an A-50 airframe was flown to Israel to allow IAI to begin installation of the Phalcon system and by May 2000 this work was almost complete — but then international politics came into play.

		"After months of delay, the first Ilyushin/Beriev A-50 Mainstay airframe for China arrived in Israel on October 25 for conversion by IAI to the requirements of the Peoples' Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF).
		Of interest also is the fact that the rotodome support pylons are constant chord structures, whereas those on the Russian A-50 are tapered towards the rotodome attachment point.

		Beriev has been renamed Taganrog (after the city in which the new company is based), and Mikoyan-Gurevich is now just Mikoyan, but the original abbreviations are retained in their aircraft designations.
		This was a joint venture of the Ilyushin and Beriev OKBs (providing the airframe and electronics, respectively); the A-series designation, normally used by Beriev to indicate a prototype or experimental aircraft, has been retained for the production aircraft.
		They were still arguing when the aircraft entered service, so its internal name of A-50 went to the print shop.

	India & Pakistan AEW Options
		In Apr 00 Russia caused consternation in Pakistan when they detached two Russian Beriev A-50 Mainstay AEW aircraft to operate from an Indian Air Force base, during a lengthy demonstration of AEW capabilities to Indian Air Force personnel.
		Unfortunately, since the partition of the old Imperial India into India and Pakistan, the two countries have been either at war, recovering from war or at peace but with both sides preparing for the next war and sadly there seems little likelihood that this cycle will be broken in the near future.
		Consequently, on 11 Aug 03 it was something of a surprise when the US State Department announced that it had no objections to the sale of the Phalcon system to India.

	Chinese AWACS (Military Nuts)
		The aircraft are based on the Russian Beriev A-50 Mainstay airframe that uses a Chinese-developed phased-array radar, housed in a static dome to provide 360 degree coverage.
		Subsequently, Russia offered China a variant of the Beriev A-50 Mainstay, which also reportedly provides electronic-surveillance measures and can "hack" into enemy computer defenses.
		The Chinese radar system is believed to be equivalent to Russia's, with the capability to direct a dozen interceptor aircraft toward as many as 100 targets out to a range of 250 miles.

	Red Chinese deploy their first AWACS
		The aircraft are based on the Russian Beriev A-50 Mainstay airframe but use wholly Chinese created phased array radar components housed in a non-rotating dome, providing 360 degree coverage.
		My guess is that the Chinese version of the A-50 Mainstay is based upon a lot more modern technology than the original Soviet-era version.

		The first Chinese AWACS prototype is in flight test, using the Russian Beriev A-50 airframe and a three sided phased array radar, using the same generation of technology as the US E-10 MC2A, planned to replace the E-3C AWACS post 2015.
		The Sukhoi will be supported by a Beriev A-50 AWACS fitted with a Chinese phased array radar, a French ESM, comms package, networking package and ruggedised COTS computers.
		The F-15C will be supported by a 1970s built E-3 subjected to upgrades with GaAs MMIC RF components, COTS computers, and various other bits of late 1990s gear, especially networking and comms.
