Electronic warfare and Airborne Early Warning aircraft are normally
heavily converted transport or maritime patrol aircraft modified to perform surveillence
and command and control functions. The basic C-135/Boeing 707 airframe has been one of the
most used in such conversions. Another major task of these aircraft is active intelligence
gathering from the many sensors they carry. Disruption of enemy communications facilities
is another important function.
