Abstract:
A review of US array antennas for airborne warnings and control systems (AWACS) is presented. Well-known E-3 AWACS antenna and other interesting array antennas are considered. The basic features of construction and applications of array antennas for airborne warnings and control systems are examined beginning with early developments and ending with promising arrays.
