Upgrading the Russian AWACS

Kommersant reports on the planned upgrade of Russian A-50 AWACS aircraft.

“The successful completion of research and development work enables to start serial upgrading for A-50 jets of Russia’s Air Force,” a source with the country’s defense and industrial complex told Interfax."

Besides the bad translation, I would note that no specific upgrade plans or schedules are stated, landing this report into a long series of "planned" upgrades to Russian military equipment. Time will tell.
