Everything you need to know about NATO’s AWACS plane in 40 seconds ✈️⏱️
Listen up, everyone: Royal Danish Air Force Captain Kare P. is going to walk you through what NATO’s Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) is, what it does, and what it’s like as a workplace.
The AWACS is a Boeing 707 airframe. Running on four engines, the aircraft can monitor the skies for 8.5 hours – or longer if there’s an air-to-air refueller available. Its crew consists of 33 air personnel from several NATO Allies, and they all share six bunks, two ovens and (gulp) one lavatory.
The fleet of AWACS aircraft is a crucial part of helping NATO monitor its airspace, making sure the skies over and near Allied countries remain safe and secure.
