	Saab S-100b Argus
		The Erieye Radar System is being developed by Ericsson and SAAB to provide an AEW capability for the Swedish Air Force.
		The prototype of the PS-890 Erieye Electronic Scanned Array (ESA) Radar was first flown on a Fairchild Metro III (above), however the operational configuration being delivered to the Swedish Armed Forces from 1996 onwards is based on the SAAB SF340 Commuter Aircraft (below).
		More recently the Erieye radar has been chosen as part of the Surveillance of the Amazon system for Brazil, being fitted to the Embraer EMB 145 regional jet aircraft as shown in the concept picture at bottom, with five systems on order as part of the project.

		Pakistanunited - Erieye (as you know) was tested on Pakistani terrain late last year, all reports suggest that PAF was delighted with the outcome.
		At the weekend ACM was asked whether Erieye was compatible with new F-16's, firstly he spoke about Erieye as if it was a done deal, he then stated some changes would be required to the Erieye to make it compatible with the F-16's, he also said PAC could do this itself.
		I suspect Erieye is in price negotiations, although the deal may become more complicated as it has been suggested the US has offered Pakistan new E-2's for $1.6Bn or upgraded older ones for $1Bn.
