The Lockheed EC-121 Warning Star, an airborne early warning and control radar surveillance aircraft, was a Cold War sentinel that kept watch from the skies from the 1950s through the 1970s. Based on the Lockheed Constellation airframe, this propeller-driven aircraft was a technological marvel of its time, equipped with powerful radar systems that could detect and track enemy aircraft at great distances. Serving primarily with the United States Air Force, the EC-121 played a crucial role in America's defense strategy, offering long-range surveillance, command and control, and gathering intelligence. Its operational history includes critical missions during the Vietnam War, where it provided real-time battlefield intelligence. The Warning Star's legacy is marked by its contribution to the development of modern airborne early warning systems, making it a celebrated icon among military aviation enthusiasts.
