English: An RAF Sentinel R1 from 5(AC) Sqn at 902 EAW.
902 Expeditionary Air Wing (902 EAW) provides focussed support to ISAF and Coalition ground forces in Afghanistan, and support other force elements in the region, by supporting a detachment of Sentinel R1 aircraft from V(AC) Squadron.
Sentinel provides an essential intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance capability which enables ground force commanders to make real-time decisions on the tactical and operational use of force based on detailed information from the aircraft’s sensors.
Typical operations for 902 EAW’s Sentinel detachment include overwatch of ground forces during operations, the detection and tracking of enemy forces and interdiction of their supply routes. 902 EAW’s personnel provide the ground and technical support that allow its Force Elements (FE), totaling around 200 personnel, to deliver air power where required.
