TheYLC-2 radar(domestic designation:LLQ303,formerly known as385) is a three-dimensional main guidance and surveillanceradardeveloped by theNanjing Research Institute of Electronics Technology.
In the mid-2000s, an improved version labeled YLC-2A was deployed to the PLA. Equipped with a new Giga-flopsdigital signal processor,it is capable of DigitalMoving Target Indication(DMTI) andConstant false alarm rate(CFAR) processing. An S-band variation called YLC-2U with similar capabilities was also developed for SAM guidance. Both of these advanced YLC-2 radars have been specifically designed to counter stealth fighters such asF-22,with a claimed range of up to 200km even in heavy ECM environment.
