I have been waiting to get shots of our AWACS for a long time. Finally today I got some.

Nice ones. Now you just need to get one of the older models for comparison. ; )

I saw an AWACS go over the Shoalhaven river today to land at HMAS Albatross so it was great seeing your photos.

Cheers,

AWACS is a new ability for Aus military. Just can't trust those Indonesians to the north.
