It also has a number of communication systems that allow it to transmit and receive information from other aircraft and ground stations. The E-3 Sentry can also carry a variety of other sensors and electronic warfare equipment, depending on the mission. It is typically used for a variety of missions, including air defense, air traffic control, early warning, and command and control. It can operate from both land bases and aircraft carriers, and has a range of over 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers). The Sentry is often used in conjunction with other aircraft, such as fighters and bombers, to provide situational awareness and help coordinate operations. The E-3 Sentry has a crew of 13, including a pilot, copilot, and 11 mission crew members. It is powered by four turbofan engines and has a maximum speed of about 550 mph (885 km/h).
