The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) received its first Gulfstream 550 Airborne Early Warning (G550-AEW) aircraft at Tengah Air Base this evening.

The homecoming ceremony was officiated by Chief of Air Force, Major-General Ng Chee Khern.

The RSAF has acquired a total of four G550-AEW aircraft to replace its ageing E-2C Hawkeye aircraft which have served the Air Force for more than 20 years.

Equipped with a sophisticated mission suite that includes an Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar, the G550-AEW aircraft is able to detect, identify and track aerial targets.

The advanced airborne early warning capabilities offered by the G550-AEW aircraft will allow the RSAF to respond more effectively to various operational situations.
