DEVELOPMENT OF AIRBORNE EARLY WARNING AND CONTROL
SYSTEM
LOK
SABHA
Indian Air Force and Defence Research
and Development Organisation have jointly carried out a study
and evolved the system level requirements for an Airborne Early
Warning and Control (AEW&C) system. The project proposal is
under evaluation at Defence Research and Development Organisation
headquarters.
It is envisaged that help from
other countries may be required for a suitably modified aircraft
platform. Limited consultancy may also be required for technologies
such as system engineering and system integration. Such details
are to be worked out.
This information was given by
the Defence Minister Shri George Fernandes in a written reply
to Dr. DVG Shankar Rao in Lok Sabha today.
