sakura_chan 9 Posted March 18, 2010 Just wondering, what kind of systems do the marines use for AWACS/ early warning /overwatch? Couldn't find anything in a quick googling :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eble 3 Posted March 18, 2010 I'm guessing this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-2_Hawkeye E-2 carrier based Awacs or if on land in the main battlefield area I guess they would come under the USAF ones? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoRailgunner 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Found something what USMC use - principal USMC aviation command and control center DASC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Air_Support_Center - KC130 variant equipped with AN UYQ-3A transportable communications shelter: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/kc-130.htm - G/ATOR: http://www.es.northropgrumman.com/solutions/gator/ - G-BOSS: http://www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil/sites/cins/INTEL/SPECIAL%20PROJECTS/G-BOSS_Lite.html If needed they will get infos from Navy, Air Force and Army too. (Btw the E-2 is US Navy ;) ) For Electronic Warfare USMC uses the EA-6B Prowler and EA-18G Growler (special version of F/A-18). Here is a list of the USMC aircraft squadrons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_active_United_States_Marine_Corps_aircraft_squadrons Hope it helps :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
