Product Name: Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS)
Product Description
The Boeing Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) is the world's standard
for airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) systems.
The Japan E- 767 AWACS uses combat-proven mission systems to fill the needs
of both airborne surveillance and command and control (C2) functions for
tactical and air defense forces.
This surveillance system includes a flexible, multi-mode radar, which enables
AWACS to separate maritime and airborne targets from ground and sea clutter
returns that limit other present-day radar.
Its radar has a 360-degree view of an area, and at operating altitudes it can
detect targets more than 320 kilometers (200 miles) away. AWACS mission
equipment can separate, manage and display these targets individually on
situational displays.
Currently, 66 707 AWACS aircraft, designated the E-3, are in service
worldwide with the United
States, NATO, Saudi Arabia, France and the United Kingdom. Its
value was clearly demonstrated during the Gulf War, and the E-3 is credited as a
key to the success of American and allied air forces.
The tradition of excellence, begun in 1977 with the first AWACS delivery,
continues with the 767 AWACS.
