Interesting choice of airframe if true…

Seems Poland might be going for an even less obvious choice for its AEW than the already less obvious GlobalEye, with this slide via @mswierczynski1 noting the Saab 340 as the host airframe...

Unclear if it will be with the standard Erieye radar or the Erieye ER as fitted to GlobalEye (don’t know if that’s even an option).

It is unlikely that the two 340 aircraft are being transferred from the Swedish Air Force, as its two new GlobalEyes are not due to arrive until 2027. Not sure where they're coming from.





UAE returned two aircraft after they got globaleye
