| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Embraer's journey with the Indian Airborne Early Warning & Control (AEW&C) programme began in February 2005, when a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the company and Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), to develop a new AEW&C platform for the Indian Air Force (IAF).
The decision to select EMB 145 Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) platform was taken based on Embraer's experience with the complex systems integration expertise for this class of airborne platform. The contract for three EMB 145 AEW&C platforms was signed in July 2008, the contract including a comprehensive logistics package covering training, technical support, spare parts, and ground support equipment |
