πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¦ UPDATE: First images emerging from Prince Sultan Air Base show the E-3 Sentry AWACS was not merely damaged, it was destroyed.

The aircraft carries an estimated value of $500 million. The US operates only 16 in its entire fleet, they cannot be replaced.

Is this the first E3 AWACS combat loss in USAF history?
