The Saab GlobalEye Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft uses the Bombardier Global 6000/6500 platform.
The Erieye radar system, installed on the GlobalEye aircraft, is capable of tracking airborne targets at a range of 650 km and ground targets at 425 km. Saab notes that the radar, thanks to its AESA (Active Electronically Scanned Array) technology, is sensitive enough to track drones at distances ranging from 100 km to 600 km.
The Erieye radar system, developed by the Swedish company Saab Electronic Defence Systems, provides a 300-degree coverage, detecting airborne and maritime targets.
The system is used by the air forces of countries such as Sweden, Brazil, Pakistan, Thailand, Greece, Mexico, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia. The installation platform varies depending on the customer’s needs.
