The two-page description appears to be identical to current ELM-2052 product brochures distributed by Elta, including a photograph of the radar. Elta is a subsidiary of the state-owned Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israel&#8217;s Ministry of Defence said it had no knowledge of NAV and its claimed association with Elta. IAI has also denied any association between Elta and NAV &#8220;or any other Chinese firm.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yang Yunchun, NAV Technology chairman and president, did not respond to repeated requests to comment. By phone, NAV Technology\u2019s Mr. Xiong turned down requests for information about the company\u2019s activities. The Chinese-language company website does not list an AESA radar as a product.\u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> Public information indicates that Yang began his career in aeronautical engineering with bachelor and master degrees from Harbin Engineering University (1993\/1997) and a doctorate at the University of California (2001). His primary academic focus was global positioning system (GPS) and inertial navigation system (INS) integration, and advanced GPS signal processing.\u00a0After his doctorate, Yang worked for NavCom Technology and ContainerTrac.\u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> NAV\u2019s product catalog offers to &#8220;reverse engineer&#8221; an INS system\u00a0<span class=\"rte rte-comment\">Litton product <\/span>for the Pakistan Air Force\u2019s (PAF&#8217;s)\u00a0Dassault Mirage III. &#8220;Currently the Litton LN-33 INS has reliability problems at PAF and NAV Technology has proposed a comprehensive solution to reverse engineer the problem and provide detailed solution.&#8221;<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> A source who worked with Yang in California\u00a0said that Yang had been under investigation by the FBI for &#8220;creating shell companies&#8221; and &#8220;violating intellectual property&#8221; and &#8220;export controls.&#8221; \u00a0However, there are no public US federal judicial records indicating Yang was charged with any crime.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> In 2003, public records indicate Yang, his wife, Yi Yang, and Yunhai Science and Technology<span class=\"rte rte-comment\"> Co.<\/span> (YH Technology)<span class=\"rte rte-comment\">,<\/span> were sued by Crossbow Technology over patent violations involving GPS technology. The suit was dismissed in 2007 over an inability to properly identify those responsible for the violation. Yang and his wife claimed they had no connection to Yunhai. \u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> According to Chinese-language media sites, Yang is\u00a0participating in the Chinese government\u2019s secretive 863 Program. The program is designed to create\u00a0advanced technologies that will wean China off its dependence on difficult-to-obtain foreign technologies. Yang\u2019s participation in the program involves improvements to the GPS\/BD2 receiver and the network of continuously operating reference stations <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">(CORS) <\/span>used for real-time kinematic satellite navigation systems, used to improve the precision of positioning data.\u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> The product catalog does indicate a strong interest in marketing avionics products to the Pakistan Air Force, in particular the joint China\/Pakistan-developed JF-17 fighter aircraft, as well as providing support for the Mirage III.\u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> The large amounts of marketing proposals in the product catalog suggest the AESA radar might have been targeted to\u00a0the JF-17.\u00a0<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> The head of the JF-17 sales and marketing team, Air Commodore Khalid Mahmood, would not comment specifically on any progress being made on acquiring an AESA radar for the JF-17 Block III beyond saying, &#8220;The AESA radar project is making steady progress. \u00a0Installation of the radar will add significantly to the combat potential of our aircraft. We are satisfied and happy with the progress.&#8221;<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> No comment was forthcoming from Mahmood on Pakistan&#8217;s relationship with NAV Tech.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> Though unaware what level of progress has been made on selecting an AESA radar, <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">author,<\/span> analyst <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">and former pilot <\/span>Kaiser Tufail, former Pakistani air commodore and pilot,\u00a0said\u00a0if a Chinese AESA radar has been selected, it may have been the only realistic option.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> &#8220;Given the Western concerns about transfer of sensitive technology, which could find its way further east, I think we may have had no other option but to buy Chinese,&#8221;\u00a0he said.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> Analyst Usman Shabbir with the Pakistan Military Consortium think tank said\u00a0that from his discussions with the JF-17 team at this year&#8217;s Paris Airshow, he learned that\u00a0a Chinese AESA radar option had gained favor over a European offering.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> He acknowledges NAV Technology is heavily involved in providing navigation avionics for the JF-17 as well as <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">that for <\/span>some precision-guided munitions along with a transfer of technology to enable local production. However, he was inclined to believe a Chinese AESA radar would be provided by an established company such as Nanjing Research Institute of Electronic Technology, which produces the current JF-17&#8217;s KLJ-7 fire control X-band radar.<br\/> \u00a0<br\/> &#8220;Very few companies can make AESA solutions and not much is known about Chinese companies apart from NRIET,&#8221;\u00a0he said, although he\u00a0is uncertain of Chinese progress in this area that would allow an AESA radar to be installed in the JF-17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Barbara
