PLA Large Phased-Array Radar (LPAR) 2500 km coverage

90-degree sector, Heilongjiang & Zhejiang sites:

 

120-degree sector, Zhejiang and Heilongjiang sites. If the radar has same azimuth specification (120 degrees per face) as PAVE PAWS.

 

90-degree sector, Xinjiang site:

For most of the time, the antenna face is beaming 185 degrees south, for an obvious reason.

 

 Combined 90-degree sectors, Heilongjiang, Zhejiang & Xinjiang sites:

 

 So, where is the missing one? In Sichuan? Or go further to the north?

Is that really a LPAR at Hui'an site in Fujian?

Is that really a LPAR at Hui'an site in Fujian?

It really looks like a (PLAAF) LPAR from the begining.

Is that a vehicle/shelter in front of the LPAR?  Better not to do this

Put another antenna Radome in the front? It doesn't seem to be a good idea. There are lots of free spaces available at the site.

A good place for the new antenna radome. They can also use free apaces of PLAAF site, and PLAN site above, on top of the mountain, if they can get alone with them.

If Hui'an LPAR is real, it will have a 60-degree/2500 km assumed coverage as shown below in red, it is basically the same beaming direction as the Zhejiang LPAR site, which the face of LPAR antenna array is fixed to 160 degrees south.

According available Google Earth map data, the Hui'an LPAR antenna is facing 150 degrees south, and there's no any sign that it is a rotable one.

Maybe it is not a Radar at all.

Chinese Large Phased-Array Radar (LPAR), where is the missing one located?

Chinese Large Phased-Array Radar (LPAR), where is the missing one located?

 

Hebei 7070 Radar (dismantled): 40°26'48.33" N 115°06'59.69" E
Xingjiang: 41°38'28.33" N  86°14'13.29" E
Zhejiang: 30°17'11.12" N 119°07'44.45" E
Fujain: 25°07'35.27" N 118°45'06.06" E (Is that really an LPAR?)
Heilongjiang: 46°31'39.29" N 130°45'23.12" E

 

Any one knows where the following LPAR site is located? Based on the covrage of the three identified LPAR sites (http://hfasia.blogspot.tw/2017/02/blog-post_50.html), the Chinese definitely needs another one to cover the space of South East Asia, could this be the one?



Please let me know if you have the location info. Thanks.
