Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS)

The Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) is a military aircraft equipped with radar and sensors to detect and track enemy aircraft or other threats from the sky. It acts like a flying command center, providing real-time information to ground and air forces. AWACS can coordinate air operations, helping manage fighter planes and ensuring safety during missions. Its ability to see large areas from the air makes it crucial for surveillance, early warning, and tactical control in defense operations.
