I’m quite confident that the sensors on an E7 could cover any tasking that NATO require of its AEW component.
I'm sure that they do. Now what about the data link, track identity and communications capability. The point that I as making was that the transition between a UK Component and NATO Component platform should be seamless in all aspects of tasking including compatibility with support aircraft including tankers. I trust that the Wedgetail meets these requirements or the RAF would not be so interested (I hope).
