Airborne Early Warning

Airborne Early Warning (AEW) refers to a system that uses specially equipped aircraft to detect and track potential threats, such as enemy aircraft or missiles, from great distances. These aircraft are equipped with advanced radar and sensors that monitor the airspace and provide early warnings to military forces. By identifying threats early, AEW systems enhance situational awareness and enable quicker responses, ensuring better protection for a country's airspace and forces. AEW plays a crucial role in modern military operations and helps maintain air superiority.
