History of the Shackleton AEW.2 Aircraft

The Avro Shackleton AEW.2 is a British maritime patrol and airborne early warning (AEW) radar aircraft, primarily serving the Royal Air Force. The aircraft was based on the heavy bomber Avro Lincoln and operated by British forces during the Cold War period, from the 1950s up to the early 1990s. The Shackleton AEW.2 was an invaluable asset for patrol missions over the Atlantic, conducting ASW (anti-submarine warfare) operations, and serving as a flying radar platform for detecting aircraft and surface vessels.
