Summary[edit]

Description
English: A U.S. Air Force Boeing B-29 AEW (B-29-80-BW, s/n 44-87599). Three B-29s were modified in mid-1951 during a full-scale development program for airborne early warning (AEW) aircraft. The forward upper fuselage was extensively modified to house an AN/APS-20C search radar. The aircraft interior was extensively modified to house radar and electronic counter measures equipment. The development program was of interest to the Strategic Air Command and the Air Defense Command and led to the procurement of operational radar picket aircraft including the Lockheed RC-121 Warning Star.
