The Early Warning Radar Carrier based aircraft concept has been around since the Cold War. While the E-2 Hawkeye has been a staple part on carrier operations since the 60’s, this aircraft takes those features and consolidates it into a small package. Built for the carrier, you can bet that launching from the catapult and catching the wire is as easy as possible, which is still really hard.
