Russia, China and the USA will have ultra-high resolution photonic radar on future planes to spot and target stealth fighters. Russia has started to invest in military applications of photonic radar technology. The Pentagon has a lead with photonic radar technology. The Pentagon has several photonics-based technology development program underway for radars, signals intelligence and other applications.
It is believed photonic radar would provide the ability to detect stealth fighters at longer ranges perhaps as far as 300 miles.
Photonic radar would also be small and light enough for drones.
