About: Boeing 737 AEW&C   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/AGhloO_nVTaFp7GvOmHv5Q==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Some of the modifications that were made on the former 737-700ER are a completely redesigned interior, different countermeasures against missiles, like IR-flares, chaff and ECM, as well as lots of antennas and less cabin windows are only some of the differences in comparison to the civilian basis. The most significant difference is the Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems Multi-role Electronically Scanned Array (MESA) radar, that is located above the fuselage as a "top hat".

  • The Boeing 737 AEW&C is a twin-engine airborne early warning and control aircraft. It is lighter than the 707-based Boeing E-3 Sentry, and mounts a fixed, electronically scanned radar antenna instead of a rotating one. It was designed for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) under "Project Wedgetail" and designated E-7A Wedgetail. The 737 AEW&C has also been selected by the Turkish Air Force (under "Project Peace Eagle", Turkish: Barış Kartalı) and the Republic of Korea Air Force ("Project Peace Eye", Korean: "피스 아이"), and has been proposed to Italy and the United Arab Emirates.
