00:00The Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeye is a distinctive twin turboprop aircraft easily recognized by the
00:05large, rotating radar dome, rotodome, mounted above its fuselage. This 24-foot diameter rotodome
00:12is the heart of its mission, housing the long-range radar and identification friend or foe, IFF,
00:18systems that provide all-weather airborne early warning, battle management, and command and
00:22control capabilities. The aircraft features a high-wing design with two powerful Allison T-56
00:27turboprop engines, one on each wing, driving large, multi-bladed propellers. Its fuselage is
00:33relatively short and stout, designed to accommodate the radar operators and mission systems. It has a
00:38retractable tricycle landing gear and is equipped with a tail hook for carrier landings and the
00:42ability to attach to a carrier's catapult for takeoffs, highlighting its primary role as a
00:47carrier-based aircraft for the U.S. Navy. The E-2 typically has a crew of five, two pilots in the
00:53cockpit and three mission systems operators in the spacious, windowless rear section, managing the
00:58radar and other sensors. The latest version, the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, features significant upgrades
01:04in its radar technology, mission computer, and data linking capabilities, allowing it to track a large
01:09number of targets over extended ranges and provide a real-time, comprehensive operational picture to
01:15joint forces. In essence, the E-2 Hawkeye serves as the eyes of the fleet, providing crucial early
01:21warning against airborne and surface threats, and acting as a vital command and control platform to
01:26coordinate air operations. Its unique appearance and critical role have made it an iconic aircraft in
01:31naval aviation.
