Airborne Evaluation Facility

Rome, NY

AFRL's Airborne Evaluation Facility (AEF) utilizes Air Force Aero Club resources to conduct test and evaluation of a variety of equipment and concepts. Twin engine Cessna 402B and a Piper Aztec aircraft are specially configured for the test mission. These are especially suited to test SIGINT, IMINT, LASINT, and other sensors, as well as communications, navigation, ECM and ECCM systems. The AEF can also provide controlled signal source and target for evaluation of ground based systems.
