context_page_description: Airborne early warning and control aircraft are airborne radar systems designed to detect and track aircraft, missiles, ships and vehicles and provide command and control to direct friendly forces. Some operators, such as the Royal Air Force refer to such aircraft as Airborne early warning, while others reserve the shorter name for AEW aircraft lacking command and control facilities.
