NATO is considering using AWACS in the fight against ISIS, the French newswire AFP reported. “We can confirm there has been a request for concrete support from NATO to the anti-ISIL effort in the form of NATO AWACS surveillance planes,” a NATO official told the news agency. NATO has so far not participated directly in Operation Inherent Resolve, though several members of the alliance are members of the coalition to defeat ISIS.
