Proposed E-7 Wedgetail Operating Areas
Since 1991 the E-3D AEW Mk 1 Sentry has been the Royal Air Force’s AEW&C (Airborne Early Warning and Control) platform. The aircraft have also sat as part of the NATO AEW&C fleet, contributing a 25% share of force output on training and operations. Developments in technology elsewhere, and the ageing of the airframes, has reduced the operational effectiveness of the E-3D fleet and so, in 2018, the UK MOD elected to replace the E-3D with the more modern, 5 th generation E-7 AEW Mk1...
