Wedge tail and P8 looks like a good mix. Potentially a common platform.

CGB,

I believe E3 is a 707 and RJ is a KC 135 which is different.

Clearly from SA's post a manned platform is required with size being important to carry a large crew.

How are the Turks getting on with their wedge tail. Is it interoperable with NATO systems.

A quick google has shown it has a much smaller crew than an E3 so what would be its shortfall in ops NATO is likely to conduct?
