Azerbaijan doesnâ€™t allow NATOâ€™s AWACS planes to use its airspace â€“ EXCLUSIVE

Azerbaijan doesnâ€™t allow NATOâ€™s AWACS planes to use its airspace â€“ <font color=red>EXCLUSIVE </font>

27 December 2011 09:50 (UTC +04:00)

According to the report, NATO has recently addressed Azerbaijan and Georgia and asked for the use of their airspaces during the flight of AWACS planes to Afghanistan. Though Georgia officially allowed it, Azerbaijan didnâ€™t allow the AWACS aircrafts to pass through the air space.

â€œAzerbaijan allowed the cargo flights to Afghanistan through its air space. But it is impossible to grant such permission because the AWACS aircrafts are the military intelligence aircraftsâ€, the source underlined.

The similar incident occurred one year ago. The German plane returning from Afghanistan to Europe wasnâ€™t allowed to land in Baku.

AWACS planes, which are supplied with the latest technologies, and considered as â€œflying radarsâ€, can detect the friendly and enemy planes from up to 400 km away. US-based AWACS aircrafts can show the place, height, speed of about 2000 planes and follow them.
