One of the 11 AWACS aircraft that arrived at Davis-Mionthan AFB on 5/29/13. I suspect they were moved here from Tinker AFB to avoid the predicted tornados.

Nice catch Ned. The ramp must look pretty impressive with 11 of these guys there.

[Ned Harris]

Harvey: It really does look impressive. There are 12 of them now.

For me 11 AWACS on departure is a new personal outdoor record.  Leading the way back to Tinker AFB was this TACAMO.
