AIR 5333 – Project Vigilare

IntroductionBoeing Defence Australia is the prime contractor for the $280M Project AIR 5333 Vigilare, which was established by

the Commonwealth of Australia in September 1998 to acquire a new Air Defence Ground Environment (ADGE) system for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF).

Project DescriptionThe system will combine inputs from a range of platforms and sensors, including the Wedgetail Airborne Early Warning& Control (AEW&C) aircraft, Jindalee Operational Radar Network (JORN) over-the-horizon radar, civil and military radar, maritime patrol aircraft, and Royal Australian Navy ships. The Vigilare system will support wide area

surveillance, air battle management and training by the RAAF, and will provide the RAAF with a single, integrated air defence system that upgrades and coordinates the previously disparate systems.
