Preserving the eyes of the fleet an analysis of the e-2c aircraft acquisitions options

The E-2C Hawkeye is the US Navy's airborne early-warning aircraft and an integral component of the Navy's carrier air wing. The Navy soon has to decide whether to buy new aircraft, retrofit old aircraft or refurbish them to extend their service lives. This work covers these options.

  • "The E-2C Hawkeye is the U.S. Navy's all-weather airborne early-warning aircraft and an integral component of the Navy's carrier air wing. Although some of the fleet E-2Cs are currently being replaced with an enhanced version of the aircraft, many E-2Cs are approaching their service life limits and the Navy is concerned about the aging fleet's ability to satisfy future operational performance requirements. The Navy soon has to decide whether to buy new aircraft, retrofit old aircraft or refurbish them to extend their service lives, or adopt some combination of these options. This book analyzes the costs, benefits, and risks of those options."@en

  • "The E-2C Hawkeye is the U.S. Navy's all-weather, carrier-based airborne early-warning (AEW) aircraft. Additional missions for which the E-2C is used include surface surveillance coordination, strike and interceptor control, search and rescue guidance, and communication relay. It is an integral component of the carrier air wing. The basic E-2C model is a relatively old design, having joined the fleet in the early 1970s. However, it has been improved several times, and the most current version, the Hawkeye 2000 (HE2000) now in production, represents the fifth E-2C model. The current production model adds a sensor networking system known as cooperative engagement capability (CEC), which provides all members of the network (ideally all members of the carrier battle group) with a real-time combined radar/identification friend or foe (IFF) picture of the tactical air environment. Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC) is under contract to deliver 21 of these aircraft to the Navy. The first of these aircraft was delivered in October 2001, and the final one is scheduled to arrive in 2006."@en
