E-9A Widget USAF

The E-9A ‘Widget’ prepares for takeoff Jan. 29. There are only two E-9A Widgets in the Defense Department inventory and both are housed at the 82nd Aerial Target Squadron. They are used in the weapons evaluation program primarily as a surveillance platform to ensure the Gulf Coast waters are clear of civilian boaters and aircraft during live missile launches and other hazardous military activities.
