>Why would fighters that can do SOME radar/EW tasks be compared to a dedicated AWACS/EW platform?
I think it's less about those fighters having an AWACS role and more that the SAAB AWACS very recently assisted in shooting down all of those jets. That's still a bit apples and oranges style comparison, but with the caveat the apple at least shanked some oranges with a knife.

Though speaking of fighters in the AWACS role.
