Saudi E-3 沙特的E-3

E-3 Sentry were among the first to deploy during Operation Desert Shield. During Desert Storm, E-3s flew more than 400 missions and logged more than 5,000 hours of on-station time. The E-3 controllers assisted in 38 of the 40 air-to-air kills recorded during the conflict.

E-3在海湾战争的沙漠盾牌行动中，是最早投入部署的飞机之一。在战争期间，E-3执行了超过400项任务，记录下的执勤时间长达5000小时。在联军40次空战胜利中，E-3参与了其中38次。

Experience has proven that the E-3 Sentry can respond quickly and effectively to a crisis and support worldwide military deployment operations.

实战经验证明E-3“望楼”能快速有效的对危机做出反应，并对全球军事行动进行支援。

Improvement program for the E-3 began with a U.S. Air Force award of the ICON (Integration Contract) to Boeing in May 1987. ICON will equip both U.S. and NATO E-3s with an electronic support measures (ESM) passive surveillance capability, and other enhancements to the U.S. E-3 fleet.

1987年5月，美军的E-3开始实施“整体合同(ICON)”改进计划，这一计划也为北约的E-3所采用。计划中E-3将增加一套电子支援系统，用于进行被动电子监听。同时还有其他一些小的改进。

In 1989, the US airforce received the first 7 E-3s with the Boeing "Radar system improvement project RSIP" rebuilt. RSIP updates the pulse Doppler radar`s sensitivity and counter-countermeasures ability, as well as the GPS added on. And the radar operators console is updated, replaced the radars existing computer with a new high-reliability multiprocessor and rewrite the radar software to make it easier to maintain and enhance in the future. The Northrop Grumman offered the radar computer, radar control maintain interface and other hardware in this project. The whole project is completed after the NATO and UK E-3s got the same updates in 1996.

1989年美空军开始接收由波音公司实施“雷达系统改进计划”(RSIP)而进行升级的第一批7架E-3空中预警与控制系统机。RSIP升级增加了脉冲多普勒雷达的灵敏度和抗干扰能力，并安装了GPS/惯性导航系统，以改进定位精度。雷达操纵同志台也得到升级，换装了更强大的
