The Beriev A-100 is an advanced Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) aircraft developed on the basis of the Il-476 military transport aircraft. The aircraft will be fitted with the new Premier advanced active phased array radar capable of detecting and tracking airborne, sea-based and land-based targets. The Premier can detect a jet-sized aircraft at 650 kilometers away and a warship at 400 kilometers. The aircraft will also enjoy the longer range offered by the Il-476 airplane. Besides, the Russian aircraft is fitted with state-of-the-art electronic warfare (EW) capabilities to suppress enemy radars and communications which is something lacking all Western AWACS. Besides, the aircraft is expected to perform as a control center for unmanned air vehicles as well as command and communications (C2) airborne station with state-of-the-art satellite communications features.
The Russian Air Force intends to field the first A-100 aircraft starting in the mid 2020s as the replacement for the existing fleet of 20 A-50 and A-50U AWACS aircraft. The A-100 AWACS aircraft project was revealed in August 2011 by the chief of the Russian Air Force but its development started in 2014. The first flight was carried out in November 2017. The A-100 Premier may enter into service with the Russian Air Force by 2024.
