Description

This is an injection-plastic airliner model kit.


The E-7 is an airborne early warning and control aircraft equipped with a plate-shaped MESA (Multi-Function Electronically Scanned Array) radar antenna on the back of a B737-700 fuselage. It is an airborne support aircraft that monitors and tracks hostile aircraft and commands and controls friendly aircraft while staying airborne for long periods of time. The antennas are built into the front and rear of the fairing and on both sides of the pylon, and can search 60 degrees backward and forward, as well as 120 degrees on the sides of the pylon. It can electronically scan 360 degrees in less than 10 seconds, and the antenna also serves as an antenna for an improved IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) device. The thin plate-shaped antenna has less air resistance than the conventional disk-shaped funnel dome. The detection range is over 600km in look-up mode, over 370km in look-down mode for fighter-sized targets, and over 240km for frigate-sized targets at sea. It can simultaneously track 180 targets and intercept 24 of them; it also functions as an ELINT antenna, with a detection range of over 850km at an altitude of 9,000m.

This model kit from Big Plane Kit comes with newly molded parts such as the MESA antenna, wing tip antennas, and ventral fins to recreate the E-7A. Painting mask stickers and multiple Royal Australian Air Force and Turkish Air Force decals are included too. Order yours today!
