Originally posted by dlhawes Why is an AWACS-equipped helicopter buzzing my house? Actually, we happen to be on the flight path between a certain well-known secret installation known locally as "the training center" and Quantico.
The only AWACS aircraft operated by any US military branch are E-3 Sentry (modified Boeing 707) and E-767 (Boeing 767 variant).
The US doesn't operate any Advanced Warning and Control System helicopters.
The British, Spanish, Indian, Russian and Italian armed forces are the only ones operating AWACS equipped helicopters.
