5. E-2D Advanced Hawkeye
Price – $157 million
The Northrop Grumman E-2D Advanced Hawkeye looks pretty weird, but it seems like it’s a pretty good addition for the military. The company behind the aircraft calls it the “digital quarterback” that sweeps the ground before a strike, manages the mission and keeps others from harm.
The E-2D Advanced Hawkeye had its first flight in 2007 and had since entered the operational list of the US Navy. It features a radar capable of mechanical and electronic scanning, comes with electronic support measures enhancements compared to its predecessors and more.
