I know we had some AWACS support in Iraq during OIF. They can see things we would not expect them to be able to see sometimes, and this was definitely a blessing at times. Thankfully we also have ground based radar as well.
I remember being on San Antonio Texas & one flew over the house we were at while we were in the back yard & we could not hear it until it flew over the house & it was flying at a very low altitude. Amazing aircraft that produces little sound.
My old CFI in flight school was an old flight engineer on the 777 E3, he had lots of interesting stories. Apparently they're hell for the crew because they have no water reintroduced back into the air, due to the electronics so you have to constantly drink water, else you get big dehydration headaches.
The Cheshire Cat I’m sure your right but I thought that would cause air humidity to drop to below 10% and when this is the case static electricity builds up more quickly. They are probably trying to save weight because carrying water to re circulate into air for 10 hours will 100% effect airplane efficiency.

The airframes are still in excellent condition. The electronic equipment is becoming smaller, lighter, more energy efficient and better at the task in hand. So why change? When the radars can no longer be upgraded, that will be the time to change.
It is what equipment is behind the monitors and screens that matters not what someone with no idea of the on board equipment is capable of actually thinks
@@SC-om3wy It's hilariously outdated. I won't go into too much detail here, but part of the reason so many personnel are required onboard is because the air tracks are almost entirely identified and categorized manually.

NATO needs to be overhauled. Reorientated towards the changing threat from the islamic states and the far east, not just Russia. Also financial commitments need to be binding and enforced. Mostly those financial commitments need to be increased.
It’s getting there, all those countries that doesn’t meet their 2% have all increased their spending and have provided a schedule for how they are going to meet the 2% But it’s also a very confusing about the 2% mark because countries are calculating how much they spend differently!
Baloney Sergeant. Rett. Meeting people is the greatest part of the mission my ass. Getting all that new exotic foreign white poontang is the really great part.
Maganda yan...we need an aircraft like that to see the bully neighbour surveying our islands...our islands..part of the Philippines..not the neighbour's island
These planes are easy targets nowday, they will have to be pure wing like the B-2 and have defensive capabilities, otherwise they will be the first thing to be targeted by adversaries
Apparently there is "Super Quiet" Russian Kilo Class Submarines submerged off the coast of Britain, shouldn't NATO be deploying Ships and Anti Submarine Aircraft to find them?
Let me guess, InfoWars told you this? Or are you party to high grade military intelligence that neither the public nor media is? Or... You're just a troll. Hmmmm... I wonder.
How precisely do satellites detect radar signatures and share them with other aircraft in real-time? I think the whole concept of the AWACS has gone over your head. Either that or you have no idea what a satellite is. Or both.
English Andy......infrared satellites can detect heavy bombers, and fighter jets staying high in space......Spy satellites can detect surface warships and SIGINT / ELINT satellites detect/collect all radar emissions over an area .........but AWACS can detect, track targets over long ranges, it provides targets information in azimuth, range and elevation....... satellite can track targets (by it's infrared signature) and the target information provided isn't accurate, will vary many miles in range, or azimuth/elevation with the real target.......but a network of low orbiting satellites could still share information in real time
Satellites aren’t radars my dude that means that Satellites can see what is being build or moved but they can’t see when a squadron of migs are entering their territory only radars can trustworthy tell these planes are basically radars

I once saw three of these over our airspace, burton upon trent UK in about 2008. Not sure what for, but it was strange.
The avionics upgrade in the cockpit is a game changer! I flew the E-3 in the eighties and nineties and the avionics were still stuck in the seventies!
Long Caster is the best AWACS
That's your pick?
SOLITARY! NOW!

NATO could do ASW planes. Great to see countries working together to provide cargo and tanker services.
AWACS Bandog: LoOkS lIkE i wIN tHe BeT
@3:44 Two B52s in the background of the Awacs?
Lu-Ri Lei C-17s i reckon
@Lu-Ri Lei, Nope, you can see the refueling boom on the closer of the two, most likely a Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker.
I like it I'm a big fan of awacs, RAF E-3D sentry I liked and nato e-3 awacs 😁👍
What’s the power supply for all of the electronics on board? Is it drawn from the jet engines? What an amazing machine.
AWACS Sky Eye

I live near the airport where one of these is in use. Shakes my shelves every time it flies by.
How about not skip over the comm section next time? No one would have comms on the mission without those folks.
Imagine greece and Turkey both flying in this and them fighting onboard lol
what's wrong with them?
They haven’t been re-engined? Weird.
Singapore and France are mothballing some KC135s which have the upgrade.
Just saying.
I believe NATO are replacing or at least augmenting their E-3 with the E-7 since the UK and Turkey are procuring it.
redj59 the avionics look brand new though
Kinda looks like it isn't very far off those magnetic tape drives from the 60s. I'm sure it does the job.
I just saw one of these fly through (low) a small town in Maine. it was freaky. any insight as to why?
Likely training exercises. There was probably some landmark or ground facility that they wanted to mock as a base or installation of some sort.
Didn't the RAF get rid of all their AWACS planes?
2 of these were in Glasgow Scotland today

Wow, Boeing 707s! That's very old! And they are planning to keep them until 2035!
That must be a lot of fuel burn compared to modern engines.

Not correct. There are also multipal nations that has come together and paid for C-17 Globemasters and Airbus 330Mrtt's
This is how NATO should functions all around
It is :)
THE USA NEEDS TO UPGRADE THESE AIRCRAFT WITH BETTER RADARS. THE RUSSIAN HYPERSONIC MISSILES PUT THESE AIRCRAFT AT HIGH RISK.

Now they are coming to Chile Thank you RAF
So what do yoi think is there a real need for this plane to be bought by small countries like Serbia, Bosnia etc

What happened to satellites? Why the need for AWACS with all those satellites in space?
Bruh, awacs are still needed and used, they help and are useful
Resolution and time on station, satellites are either too far away to get a good look or pass over too quickly
