OVERVIEW: The JY-8A WALL RUST is a mobile, short range 3-D air mobile tactical radar operating in the G/H-band.  

DETAILS: A modified version of the JY-8, the JY-8A is intended to provide precise 3-D information on targets for fire control.  It has an increased capability of detecting low-altitude targets, but at the cost of a reduced detection range, and lower height accuracy.  It is physically identical to the JY-8.  ECCM features include frequency agility, Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR), low sidelobes and blanking of jammed beams.  It is capable of tracking up to 24 targets.

Specifications:

Frequency: 		 4-8 GHz (G/H Band (NATO), C Band (IEEE))
Power output: 		 40 kW(average); 800 kW (peak) 
PRF:			 300 pps	
Range Accuracy:		 500 m (range),   0.3 degrees azimuth 					
On/Off time:		 unknown
Deploy/Stow Time	 120 minutes/ 120 minutes
 
Detection Range  


tgt alt. 100m:		 unknown km
tgt alt. 18000m:	 unknown km
Max Range:		 150 km

  
NOTES:  The JY-8 can be employed as the main radar sensor for an automated tactical defense system, or can be used as an independent radar.
