What did you use for drawing/designing that?

The thing I'm an island nation located a decent distance away from the guy myself and the military alliance I'm a member off are planning to go to war with. In between myself, say nation A, and the enemy, nation C, is another island nation C allied with me. So I can launch my intercontinental bombers from my mainland and have refueling aircraft based in friendly nation C to let me fly a strike mission from my nation to nation C. On the other hand nation C can;t really attack me with planes since he would have to overfly nation C (which is hostile to him) and doesn't have any locations between his nation and mine to base refueling aircraft in.
I'm not sure semi-active laser guidance is practical for SAMs or AAMs (no SAM or AAM besides starstreak has ever used it AFAIK)s ince lasers need to be mechanically steered and have a tiny beamwidth meaning keeping a lock on an aggressively maneuvering aircraft could be extremely difficult. With a laser weapon you only need a dwell time of a few seconds to deal damage but with a missile at BVR ranges it could be minutes between missile launch and missile impact meaning you need to keep the laser on target for that amount of time for the missile to successfully intercept the target. With an electronically steered radar this isn't very difficult, with a laser it could be challenging, especially in adverse weather conditions where unlike X band radars IR lasers suffer from atmospheric attenuation.
They're 'peer competitors" because they have huge armies that are much bugger than mine. They choose ICly to use MT stuff while I use a mix of strict MT and more elaborate PMT stuff. We haven't decided on a timescale but 2027 and 2037 have been proposed, as to get an idea of what tech is considered acceptable and not. Certain PMT tech that I like to make very heavy usage of, specifically railguns, solid-state lasers, and hypersonic airbreathers, exists already in the MT world as functional prototypes, I'm going with the assumption that in 10/20 years the tech will be mature enough that it can fielded as an operational system. To make up for the tech advantage my numbers are lower though, since I'm also making the assumption that said systems will have higher procurement costs (scaled for inflation) compared present day alternatives.

I don't see why you could not have more than one. The scan rate is so high I don't think it would be needed though.

There used to be a helicopter self defense radar in the Rosoboronexport catalog. But I don't remember much about it. It looked like it was intended to sit on top of the mast though, with four UHF phased arrays.
