That is not a radar, it's one of the L402 arrays which is the PAK-FAs ECM suite.

heh, and what is an ECM suite anyway ? it is actually a radar :) emitting jamming signals

 

what amazes me is that this "L402" index is so known in the west :)

I guess the reason of this is english wikipedia page about PAK FA, which got this index from a famous sci-fi "journalist" Petr Butovskiy.

you won't find any mentions of this in russian aviation society

"KNIRTI" (the developer) and "SIGNAL" (the producer) - both subsidiaries of JSC Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies (KRET) - never mentioned this "L402" index too :)

No, it's not a radar as it is not for detecting and ranging targets. It's build to passively receive the emitter and then emit altered returns on that frequency, it has very different working principles.
